hands up if Quinn is still ignoring you

I've been waiting 30+ days (and counting).

Those dinged by LA office, when did you submit and did you go in for an interview and get dinged or no interview and dinged right off the bat

Dinged today by the LA office

Stats?

Dinged as well. Top 3% in T40-60 school.

Rough, man. By dinged do you mean CB --> No offer. Or did they just send you an email w/ no interview?

Just trying to get an idea of how the process is working at this point in the time-line.

Yes, at least 2 people have reported getting CBs (and offers) from LA.

Sigh. Was really hoping to hear back from these guys prior to OCI bidding but no luck thus far.

After CB? Or just via email after submitting your materials?

Sent an email, dinged with no CB interview. I emailed in probably 3 weeks before getting dinged. Got the generic "thank you for your email" about a day after submitting.

A close friend got an offer in NYC.

DC offer on the spot as well. I was told this is their M.O. if they like you. Unless the hiring partner is not there the day you do the CB, then it seems like if your gonna get an offer it will be within a couple days after your CB

DC offer I heard about came a day after callback--hiring partner wasn't there the day the guy I know interviewed, but he got a call the day after

[Anonymous User]

When I interviewed one partner (the last I saw) said he was 'confident you'll get an offer' and on my way out I was told I'd hear 'probably in a day -- a week max.'

It's been 3 weeks. I'm assuming one of the interviewers had a really negative eval (none felt bad at the time though), that partner hadn't seen it when he spoke, and that the eval gave them serious pause. Still, wish they wouldn't promise a week latest and then go radio silent.

Did you follow up?
This seems like the classic case of following up. After 2 weeks (or now), you should have contacted them (non-intrusively) and briefly mention that the interview went well, you're still interested, and that you were told you'd hear back within a week at the latest. I would be careful about your wording though (for example, don't sound like you were entitled to an answer or anything and don't blame the partner).

At least that's what I would do. Maybe someone else can confirm.

[Anonymous User]

Yeah, you're right -- and its not as though I feel entitled to an answer. I've been on nonlaw hiring committees so I know how things can fall off timeline or people can misspeak.

I had two phone numbers on my resume (one for summer, one for school year). I followed up after two weeks saying basically all that and ensuring they knew to use the summer number rather than the school year number until at least mid-August. They responded with a simple "thanks for the updated contact info" the next day. I don' think I should contact again lest I seem overly pushy.

Yeah IDK, I find it hard to believe that a firm that really wanted to give you an offer would have just forgotten about you and when you follow up they are going to be like "Oh thats right! Here's your offer!"

I think its safe to say getting into the D.C. office is a bloodbath. The 3 CBs/Offers on this thread now have been the above poster, Top 5% at CCN and Top 10% at MVP.
