Anyone else gearing up for a mass mailing campaign? I've got everything ready to go for my home market and I'm currently starting to look at other close by markets.

I think I was just placed on hold by Arnold and Porter DC. They'll let me know by Friday.

Anyone else tired of OCS trying to assure us that we'll all have jobs?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Mon Aug 30, 2010 12:48 pm

76% got jobs last year, I assume it will be closer to 85% this year and firms do rolling callbacks so all hope is not lost yet, give it a couple of weeks.....that being said I did not feel like this year was better than last year, of the CB's I receive I felt it was based on luck more than anything, I also feel like firms think because of ITE they can give callbacks only to those with a bunch of H's or LR, best advice I can give to Harvard 1L's is study your butt off, nobody cares about personality only H's!

I think Harvard OCS is great, they can't control the economy and if you don't get a job you can't really fault them. I do fault OCS for not being "realistic" with regard to bidding because a whole lot of us bid on firms we had no chance at, while skipping over those firms that would want us, especially the NYC firms. I also was a bit annoyed seeing people who made law review doing screeners with Stroock and Kaye Scholer, you know you're not working there so why take away someone else's potential callback? But I guess they earned that right....

As someone with 6 Hs and only 1 CB, I wish this were true...

False.

8 CBs 1 rejection on 20 interviews to this point, and I'm lucky if I'm top 1/3rd.
