Anyone get a CB from K&L (Sea), Perkins (Sea), or Greenberg?

Got a Greenberg CB, but they never formally scheduled it and it has almost been a week
Silence from both K&L and Perkins for me

Yes it is definitely a concern for a lot of people, I think that sentiment is the same every year. But, you also have to remember, roughly 40-50% (I remember hearing that but I could be wrong) of people got summer posititiosn through OCI. This year is definitely special, so I am sure that number has gone down. but I have chatted with many who got jobs after OCI by cold emailing. i am trying to not give up hope.

Yeah a bit... when even students at T6 schools like Columbia & NYU are struggling, there is definitely room for concern

I was told by OCS that last year 60% of people got jobs from OCI (so 40% didn't). This year, that number might go down to 30-40%. I could be mistaken (I really hope I am because that would be brutal).

I believe last year's stats were ~600 did OCI, and ~350 accepted offers for a 2L summer. It's possible we could have the same amount of students getting offers this year, assuming more students bid for lower GPA firms than in normal years.

I doubt it. Very few people have gotten offers this cycle.
