Re: 1L diversity summer associate positions
From this thread it seems like only Philly has extended callbacks and offers. Has anyone heard from DC or LA offices?Anonymous User wrote:Chicago officeAnonymous User wrote:Which office?Anonymous User wrote:Anyone did a callback with Drinker or hear from them after a CB?

Re: 1L diversity summer associate positions
To the person rejected by Steptoe, did you have a CB? Probably bad news for me as well.
I've had a total of 9 callbacks (more screeners), most of which were in DC. The screeners that said they would recommend me have been the ones where I've not gotten a CB? Strange. Anyway, no offers.
Also have gotten calls from two firms with rejections.
Has anyone heard back from Cleary or Wiley Rein or Baker Botts? (All DC)
As for recent rejections - MoFo (no CB but screener), Perkins Coie (CB), and Vinson and Elkins (Richmond).

Re: 1L diversity summer associate positions
Anybody hear back from NY firms? Any of them?
I'm a bit stumped, because there has been no movement and I'm hoping for at least some screeners or is it too late?

Re: 1L diversity summer associate positions
OP here - For anyone who's curious, here are my results:
17 screeners, 10 callbacks, 7 callbacks accepted, 1 offer (V10).
T14 top 10%. The competition is insane -- I'm incredibly lucky to have made it out.

Thought I'd update as well. T14 top 20%. Sent out 50+ SA apps late-ish, 2 callbacks, 1 of which I accepted. Very lucky to have an offer from the one.

T-20. Let's say about 40 apps. I had about 10 screeners, 5 callbacks, and 3 offers. Taking a position with V50 firm. Top 10% in class.

Re: 1L diversity summer associate positions
I received an offer from a V75 firm. It was my first callback out of the 3 I did and the one I really wanted. Got the offer as I was going into a different firm's callback.

Congrats to you guys!!
How long after callbacks did it take for you guys to get an offer?

Re: 1L diversity summer associate positions
My callback was early January. Got my offer yesterday. So there is hope guys! What's happening now is most likely they are going through lists of who to offer and waiting to hear back from those people before moving on.Anonymous User wrote:Congrats to you guys!!

And I just had a different callback yesterday too so some places are still interviewing. Just be diligent. Ask for updates. If you have a deadline let them know. As soon as I told the firm I am going to that I had a deadline they gave me an offer. Some places, if they REALLY liked you, won't want to lose you to another firm. Contrary to the idea that they have many to choose from.

Re: 1L diversity summer associate positions
Got my callback this week. I will say, if you are willing to be patient, you still have a good shot. It's likely that many students have multiple offers and as they make their decision, it will open up slots. Best of luck to everyone.

Can we make an anonymous spreadsheet that includes people's schools, rankings and offers?
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
