I’m starting to think Latham is waiting a little bit longer on a lot of people because they have a very fast deadline for the offer acceptance. Would be a waste to interview people now who wouldn’t want to accept immediately

Is a fall judicial internship worth a resume update to radio silence firms or nah?

Is this true? My school requires offers be held open until some point in August

How about making law review? Both to radio silence and also firms I’ve done interviews with?

Please don’t worry about people getting offers from the same day you interviewed.

I remember looking at a thread like this 2 years ago when I did a pre-OCI callback. People from the same day heard back with offers within a few days to a week. I thought I wouldn’t get it and then, two weeks later, I got the call. I wasn’t the only one to get an offer like that.

Edit: not sure why previous posts say updating with a secondary journal isn’t useful. It’s a great way to poke them for a response and sometimes that kind of commitment despite not landing LR shows initiative (especially if you’re a borderline admit for lit). I’d update them about literally anything - moot court, getting a CALI in an unimportant class, changing your unofficial transcript because you’re taking an extra course now, a new RA job, membership to a random club.

If they haven’t sent a rejection, you’re still being considered.

I scheduled a screener from K&E for next week, but that's it. I'd also love to know if anyone's heard from Sidley or Cleary

Radio silence and losing my mind (even though I don't expect to hear for a few days).
