Screener. Slow turnaround, huh?

Got a Mayer DC callback almost a month after the screener. Wonder if I got promoted off the waitlist.

Word has it that the information from Northwestern's OCI was, how do you say, misplaced for a while. Someone there lost it for a while.

This is also what they told me.

Has anyone gotten a rejection from Sidley's DC office? Just wondering whether it's because of Carter Phillips's likely lack of time to sign a bunch of letters or because they're doing a "wait list" thing..

I know some people have callbacks from Schiff Hardin and some people have dings, but I have neither as of yet. Anyone else in limbo? Starting to wonder if my ding got lost in the mail.

I'm in limbo with them as well.

Cahill offer. Received 3 hours after CB. Very excited given Cahill's preeminence in the type of law that I would like to practice.

The Cahill interviewer kicked me out 10 mins early when I interviewed (in a 20 min interview)! But congrats on the offer it is a great firm in its area of focus!

Sherman Howard Rejection

Someone offhand mentioned to me that they don't think Jones Day actually plans to take many summers this year - not sure if they meant in general or just from their belated NU OCI. Has anyone else heard this/know if it's accurate or why someone may think that?

(I have an interview tomorrow and just wondering how futile it really is...)

I have heard this as well. I have also heard that Jones Day has an abornally high GPA cutoff this year. The word on the street is that there is a hard cutoff at 3.70 (before they will even begin to consider you).

Is this every office? Well that was a waste of time...

Congrats! What did the recruiter tell you the timeline would be at the end of the callback? The recruiter told me I would probably hear at the end of the week or maybe even the following week. Is that similar to what they told you and then you got an offer 3 hours later? Just trying to figure out what to expect. Thanks.

The recruiter told me exactly the same thing ... I then received the offer 3 hours later.
