Interviewed with SV office, and was radio silence until I got an e-mail today telling me they're still in the review process and that I should fill out a self-ID form in the meantime.

also got this e-mail for the chi office. tried to fill it out, it said it didn't recognize my e-mail. tried to reply to the e-mail, got bounced back. tried to find recruiting e-mail info on the website, only thing i found was also outdated and bounced back. A little at a loss as to what to do, but i'm pretty sure its just going to be asking for race etc b/c theyre a government contractor and that its anonymous and voluntary so i'm leaning towards not doing it and forgetting about it. open to other suggestions.

I did it, and you were right. Its the voluntary race/gender/vet status form. If your not any of those 3, I don't think not filling it out will harm your chances.

I'm sorry. You really can't take these things personally though. You'd have to be a chameleon to get offers from every firm with a callback. If you got a cb with Paul, Weiss, I'm sure you have plenty of other options.

Rough stuff. But shake it off, get up off the dirt, and keep swinging. I've gotten post-CB rejections too, and the best mindset to have is that you only need one of your top choices, because you can only pick one anyway. Having a lot of offers doesn't add inches to your dick, or zeroes to your salary.

Also, if you're fortunate to have choices between offers, "top choices" should be some place where you can see yourself working at for years, not merely a V-rank. Once you're out in the field, nobody cares about Vault. On that note, PW and a lot of V10's, are known sweatshops.
