Are you guys emailing firms you didn't get interviews with or just going to swing by their hospitality suites?

Hi there,
I am a transferring student who just unfortunately missed the EIW deadline, I haven't got the simplicity access yet, can anyone provide me a list of the employers coming to the EIW so I may be able to contact them see if they can offer me an interview?
I am really excited about attending GULC this coming fall but missing OCI is just terrible, I am trying my best to make it up.

Thanks for your help, best luck for all your guys interview!

I wondered if it is worth it if you miss EIW, especially if your original school offered you very generous financial aid.

Anyway, check out the web of EIW, it is there.

Can anyone provide me with a link? I cannot find the information on the career center website.

I am going to drop a lot of my interviews for OCI. Keeping 3/17 screeners (all NY firms). I am not sure how the "trading" will work after August 4th, but let me know if anyone is interested. I am looking for interviews with 4 NY firms in V10.

PM me

I'm looking to trade a V10 Chicago or Pillsbury (NY) interview for any of the following NYC firms: White & Case, Milbank, Dechert, Schulte, Jones Day, or Ropes & Gray.

Also, I received an email about a nighttime reception on August 11th for a firm I'm interviewing with. What is the deal with these? How bad does it look if we don't attend?

Got the same thing...but I didn't get an interview. B/c of that, I'm going.

which firm?

[Anonymous User]

Does anyone here happen to know how to get the name of the interviewers from different firms?

On Symplicity, if you click on "Scheduled for Aug X" it takes you to a screen that says who your tentative interviewer is. Not every firm has the information posted yet.

Anyone need Simpson Thacher or Latham & Watkins? I'm looking for Skadden.

Snagged a couple from open sign-ups. Are they all gone, or is just not showing me anything left because I added two within 24 hours?

Also - would like to offer Chadbourne & Parke (NY), 1:40-2:00 slot on the 11th, for any NY offices of Proskauer, Cooley, DLA Piper, Morgan Lewis, Orrick, Kasowitz, Kelley Drye, Holland & Knight, Alston & Bird, Linklaters

Once you signed up for two slots, you would not be able to see any openings in 24hrs

FYI: Turns out you can go over 18 slots with open sign up.

Remove this post. Chadbourne knows the interviewee for that slot and it will be auto-ding if it gets back to them some how.

Any advice on how to handle back-to-back interviews? I have one starting and one ending at 9:40. Not too sure what to do.

I don't have it myself.

I read last year's thread. It said you should notify the firm of the condition beforehand.

This is probably a long shot but I am looking to trade Milbank NY and Willkie NY for any V25-ish DC firms or hogan lovells. Thanks!
