Nice dude. I take that to mean you actually enjoyed your summer, which is rad and stuff.

Best ten weeks of my life. I can't believe they're going to pay me to go to free lunches, work 9:30-5ish, and go to fun evening events as a career!

Congrats brother!

Also, I fucking hate doing comparisons. Far and away the worst SA transactional assignment.

I hear that's EXACTLY what practice is like. My firm made us go 8:30-5ish... #Sweatshop

Haven't gotten an assignment in a few days even though my department seems to be pretty busy...bad sign?

Oh God I just want an offer. Tomorrow is apparently the day where they let the no-offers/cold-offers know their fate and then escort them out of the building. Everyone else gets a end-of-the-summer party.

It really, really isn't flame. Two people got hit with this last year apparently. One showed up drunk to work and another got on the wrong side of a partner. But still, terrifying.

Yea but making day of decisions while blatantly offering others seems unrealistic. You think they'd at least give a "we'll get back to you within the next few weeks" shpeal at the exit interview and then quietly reject those people by snail mail weeks later.

Yea I haven't heard of any place at all giving last-day offers, it's always later

Plus is everyone in the summer class leaving on the same day

edit: also, why would that happen on a Wednesday

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 21, 2015 5:30 pm

My firm says they'll let us know within three weeks of last day

Are most of you like that or day of?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 21, 2015 5:31 pm

No, some places give offers before the last day. Never heard of someone getting escorted out, though.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 21, 2015 5:32 pm

Apparently offers at my firm go out before the end of the summer. Traditional 100% firm and haven't heard stories of people being escorted out if they didn't get one.

Showed up drunk to work? Ha wtf is that supposed to mean. At least twice a week here the associates make an impromptu drinking office and we kill multiple bottles by 4pm.

It's supposedly Latham. Not sure if true.
