Wilson Sonsini Boston (SK) phone callback just now!

(I feel like another person for them in Boston posted something last week about getting a callback and I was all sad about not getting one. But yay!)

Original Anon:

Also, they were a Monday interview so it took over a week to get the call. So, holding out hope still for other places!

Anyone hear from Kirkland Boston, Mintz Boston, or Morgan Lewis Boston?

Heard from Morgan and Kirkland both last week. Nothing from Mintz yet.

Yeah, I got a Holland & Knight CB today - interview was last Monday. Very weird, but exciting!

White & Case Boston ding... Rejections outnumber callbacks.

You only need one that you want...

And considering the average number of callbacks is around 6, you're probably in great shape.

Does anyone else feel like they severely messed up EIP and doesn't know why? I had decent grades and I bid widely in NYC. I'm told (by my mock interviewer) I'm a strong interviewer, but I have fewer callbacks than I had Hs last year. It's really getting to me.

Right there with you. This year seems to have been brutal for a lot of people.

Yes. Same number of cbs at Hs was just rejected at white and case Boston. Was anyone well above median rejected? I wish
I could figure out what I'm doing wrong here and how to fix it

Somehow it feels better not to have 49¢ spent on rejecting me.

I think OCS overrecommended "safe" firms to very strong candidates. I know some people who absolutely killed it but had several firms they really had no interest in.

Keep in mind that W&C Bos is hiring 1-3 SAs this year, so they don't need to give that many CBs probably. I wouldn't take this ding too hard

Also reporting Orrick (SF) cb this afternoon, and WSGR (SV) cb last Friday.

Just out of curiosity - did you go to any of the receptions, or talk to any of the associates/interviewers at them? A few of my friends (especially those bidding Boston) seemed to think they really helped, because their interviewers would generally greet them with "it's so nice to see you again, you're interested in X, right?"

Meanwhile I'm over here sitting on 2 CBs out of 20 interviews, so...

Edit: oh hey, just got a ding from Vinson. Yay.

Nothing but dings today. Was really hoping for some positive news this week.
