Bump on this question. I'm over a week out from my CB and still radio silence...

How did you think White & Case compared to the others?

I know they gave out offers by the end of the week after the first super days.

Baker DC associate here. A few years ago (keeping it vague for anon purposes), I got my offer two days after my callback. It all depends on which group you're interviewing for. Each group essentially makes its own hiring decisions, and some are faster to pull the trigger than others. If you're a "yes," you should get the offer very quickly (a couple days to a week). Otherwise, you're a "no" or a "maybe, but let's check out some other people first." Some "maybe" applicants get offers anyway, as a fair number of "yes" people turn Baker down for better offers (except for tax).

In what way? If you're asking for general impressions: in terms of international work, they really do so much that they're kind of in their own league in that regard. Some practice areas that are niche at other firms are quite significant at W&C. Their new office is also beautiful. I didn't think recruitment put as much thought into the recruiting/interview process as at S&C/Cravath, where interviewers felt more deliberately chosen to speak to or complement the interviewee's interests or personality. Also concerned that they have a billable hours requirement, not because it means people at the other firms (where there isn't one) work less, but because it creates weird/bad workplace incentives, like seniors hoarding work when there isn't much to go around, etc.

Anybody hear back from Venable or Paul Hastings (both NYC)?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Fri Sep 01, 2017 5:41 pm

Have anyone heard from Jackson Walker Houston or Strasburger Price Dallas?

Has anyone who interviewed at S & C this week heard anything?

For future tea leaf readers - ended up getting the offer 3 weeks after my callback.

i know this thread is for CB to offer. But does anyone know the timeline for a video screener to CB for NY firms?

Has anyone heard of any recent movement from Ropes NY? Trying to pinpoint a timeline for CB to offer has been difficult.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Mon Sep 11, 2017 5:31 pm

Got an offer from Ropes NY over 2 weeks after the callback. Seems like they move fairly slowly.

I've had silence for just over 3 weeks. Know someone else who interviewed same day and received an offer 4 or 5 days after (including a weekend)

Assuming a video screener is the same as a phone or in-person screener, my turnaround was always within 48 hours. I'd speculate that firms would be moving faster now that they're trying to finalize the last spots in their classes.

Ok, so if it's nearing a week....likely a no then, right?

Probably. But then again, I'm also just a 2L who didn't do particularly well at OCI. No advice on TLS is going to improve your position though.

Also for future Tea Leaf Readers -- Latham NYC offer three weeks after CB.
