Texas OCI (and non-UT students bidding on TX firms) Forum

Which V&E offices can be confirmed as having extended dinner invitations?

[Anonymous User]

Interested if anybody can confirm LL Austin or V&E Austin for UT's OCI?

[Anonymous User]

V&E Dallas and V&E Baker Botts CBs from a T-14. Still blows my mind how difficult the Texas market is to crack for non-Texas schools. It's funny, because T-14ers generally don't want to be in Texas, and Texas generally doesn't want people from a T-14, since there aren't any in Texas. A match made in Hell.

This is rubbish.

Any Jones Day Dallas offers?

By phone or by email?

These invitations are for a dinner, right? Not CB?

So I found out about off-campus interviews.
Some firms are meeting students off campus. This equates to a pre-select.
Because the lottery system requires a firm interview X lottery students for every Y preselect students, some firms are conducting a small section of off-campus interviews in order to avoid having to talk to lottery kids.

This is ridiculously misinformed.

On another note, I can confirm that at least some Fulbright San Antonio callbacks were given yesterday by phone call.

Same thing...the I invite said congrats on your callback. To celebrate we will have a reception. (can only confirm Dallas but assuming the reception is for all offices)

H&B already made some offers.
I know for a fact that at least a minority of BB Austin offers will be made next week. Don't ask how I know.

After my BB-Austin interview, I was told that it could be as long as two weeks. As others have mentioned, however, I do know that at least some callbacks have been given out.

Can you confirm Houston?

Can you confirm Houston?

Yes. ALL offices.

[Anonymous User]

LL Houston is confirmed, but I've heard nothing from Austin.

Can anybody confirm or deny that information?

[Anonymous User]

Anything from Weil-Dallas or LL-Dallas?

[Anonymous User]

Weil Dallas people have received callbacks. Unsure about LL Dallas.

Every office has been different. You need to specify which offices you interviewed with.
