Yup, me too. I think it's full.

[Anonymous User]

ah fudge. seriously, since when did ohio become so popular...

[LRGhost]

i had to log in like 3 times before the open sign ups showed up.....
so not sure if there's literally nothing or it's a technical issue. I had to completely close browsers too before they showed up for me.

I had to do that as well. But now it just says opt in/opt out under everything so I'm assuming that means everything is full?

Same. I think the system fucked up somewhere but I dunno.

[Anonymous User]

Well I'm actually now thinking that the system messed up too, but even regardless of that it's certainly Tim's fault

[Anonymous User]

you can sign up for a few again FYI

[Micdiddy]

There's a bunch still available. Just logged in this minute and got Irell & Manella.

[Anonymous User]

can you not sign up for back to back interviews? it tells me interview conflict but I really want to sign up for a slot that is right after a current interview

Gotta have a gap.

and you can't cancel one you signed up for during open sign ups right?

I am trying to schedule a callback interview from a firm I interviewed with at one of the diversity fairs. They are requesting to do it in the next 2-3 weeks and it is out of town. Should I push it after OCI and risk them interviewing other people they like, or cancel a light day of interviews to travel there sooner?

I'm M-F the second week. I have next Friday off, so that would of course be the best day, but just in case that one isn't available.

I would only cancel a day of interviews if it was one i really didn't care about, but without an offer in hand anywhere i don't know that i really wouldn't care about any interviews. Plus, I don't think the Monday after OCI would be much of a disadvantage since that's when most OCI CBs are going to start too.

Good call. I guess with the first CB I just got nervous and was like oh shit... it's really happening now.

I'm under the impression that OCI starts Tuesday, so I wanted to wish you all good luck! That's all.

[Anonymous User]

What kind of research do I need to do for my interviews? I wasn't going to do OCI, but now I have 20 interviews and I am well-behind the learning curve. Please halp!

[Anonymous User]

Will be cancelling an OCI screener with Sidley Chicago shortly. Hope one of you guys can put it to good use!
