Received an offer from the Philly office within one or two days of the callback.

Checking in late, but next day offer from Boston - their hiring committee meets on Wednesdays FWIW.

Philly: CB on 8/26, offer 9/2 via phone.

CB was really laid back, best group of people I've met at any Philly firm. Accepting offer soon!

What school are you from? I had a callback on Friday and haven't heard anything. Probably not a good sign?

It was a holiday weekend. Give it an extra day or two.

I just got a Boston offer. Really couldn't get a feel for the office's future, financially and number wise. Where does the Boston office fit into the firm generally?

Anyone knows how easily it is to transfer among the Dechert offices?

Supposedly very. I know at least two people who have successfully done it even before they started their summer. Supposedly the firm also encourages split summers between their offices, though IDK how true that is or what's involved.

I got an encouraging phone call from them, but not sure if those went out to everyone they interviewed. Haven't heard of anyone getting an offer there yet.

It's not Philly, DC, or NY, but isn't the smallest office. My impression was they really integrate the different offices so that people in one office are comfortable working with people in another office if a particular project requires several offices to work together. I know nothing about the future or the financials, but was under the impression things are going really well.

Do you know how that's done? Would you just email the recruiter and tell them you want to work in a different office?

I don't have any experience with this whatsoever, but most firm offices have different recruiters in each office. Did you mention you might want to do this at the CB? Nobody would want you to be somewhere where you're not happy, but consider asking your career services office the best way to go about this before proceeding.

Is the consensus that the Dechert Philly office meets on Monday or Tuesdays to extend offers?
