Do non-V10 firms tend to be slower than V10 ones? What about secondary markets vs. NYC?

So, if you've been through two days of interviews without any callbacks, I take it we should aggressively try to grab as many interviews as we can for Monday and Tuesday? Basically go to every hospitality suite and do the lottery in the morning?

Is it worth trying to do something differently in interviews? Like, maybe I'm coming off wrong or something.

I'm starting to get nervous about this because I had a few interviews that went really well and I don't want to be left with nothing at the end of this process.

For firms that interviewed on Friday but don't seem to have reached out for CBs yet, should we assume that the earliest we'll hear is Monday? Or are weekend calls possible?

I don't think it is over, but chances are significantly decreased. Someone correct me if that is wrong.

Same boat as you by the way.

Ask friends to mock interview you, but traditionally the advice seems to be that if you don't have any CB's going into the weekend, you should mass mail. I would mail every firm that isn't at EIP, or firms in a secondary market for which you have ties.
