Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. :(
+1 (CB last week and recent ding)
Didn't like them as much in person though, particularly the Associate with whom I spoke. Much like GT, had an inferiority complex (were really curious where else interviewing, overly focused on why firm x/why Chicago).

Saw earlier one person got an offer from Sidley (Chi) today -- congrats! Anybody else also? I'm going to guess if I don't hear from them in the next few days it's probably a ding

I can't remember which firm it was, but last year I got a ding saying something along the lines of "It was nice meeting you when we visited Northwestern" when I didn't even interview with the firm.

You were not the only NU person there today (well...yesterday) so I guess you can't be identified - haha.
I was actually pleasantly surprised with FF... a very nice vibe from everyone I met, especially the recruiting team...
Not that I'm getting an offer for sure, but they definitely moved up my choice-ladder.

I haven't heard back from a Kirkland office, even though I interviewed in the first week; do you think I should follow-up with them?

I interviewed with SF two weeks ago and just got dinged yesterday. If you interviewed earlier than that maybe you're in hold?
