Transfer student here. Can someone shed light on the difference between AJF and OCI? I understand that considerably more law firms attend the AJF, but how many firms typically show up for the school's OCI? Thanks for the help.

Feel free to pm me more questions if you have them.

AJF is called that because it's in the city. It's basically the single most important job fair because of how many employers come. I have no idea, nor do I care, how many total come, but it's quite a lot. Unless you are targetting CA or a specialty you prob can find 5-10 firms that would be good for you.

OCI's happen also but in late august. the first one has ~13 firms coming, the best and most notable of which is skadden. there are also DC and Bos job fairs that have exclusively those firms coming to them. however, you can get DC or BOS jobs from AJF.

PM if you want details on which firms coming to OCI.

sarah's email says if we don't hear from any of the journals by sunday, we should let her know. so i assume they will send a rejection if no one wants you?

Everyone gets a rejection from the journals that don't offer them, e.g., law review's members officially get rejected from JLPP and ILJ.

Me too. So it might have been a relatively quick "blast" of calls.
