Anybody know how late offers usually go for the mid-sized socal firms like Manatt, Matkins, etc?

I think Matkins is only starting to do CBs this week.

Perkins Coie CB invitations still going out.

Also, was told by someone who knows an attorney on the Milbank hiring committee that the committee has yet to meet, and likely won't until next week.

Also interested in this. And school?

Too specific of info, and I'll definitely out myself here. But I will say CCN and very very short turnaround although I was told 1-2 weeks.

Well, that information is wrong. Got an offer on Monday, CB was on Thursday.

Is that in reference to Milbank? Or Perkins?

Congrats! Do you think you'll be accepting?

Thanks. Very likely because my other offers aren't as good (IMO) and the people there seem pretty great. I've had 7-8 people call me personally to congratulate me and make themselves available if I have any questions. No other firm has done that for me. At most it's a couple of emails. I think it's a great sign of their office culture.

Any chance you could tell us the other firms you have offers from that you will likely reject in case some of us are still waiting on them?

How was the CB? Pretty informal or did you feel like it was a true interview (behavioral questions, etc.)? Thanks!

They really, really emphasize fit at the LA office. I think that's a trait of LA in general; I didn't notice it as much in NYC or DC. When I got other offers, they would say they were impressed by my credentials, etc. But nobody from Milbank has said anything like that. It's all about how much people enjoyed meeting me, they think I'll fit in really well, etc. Another thing they want to know is that YOU want to be at Milbank. All in all, more on the informal side.

Any news on OC offers? Interviewed at some there too, seem to have a slower turnaround after the CB

I am interested in this too. I know I'm on the hold list at a bunch of firms and knowing where there may be some rejected offers in the near future (the sooner the better) would really help ease some anxiety!
