Hope that is helpful.

Still waiting to hear back from 4 Chicago OCI firms. When I call the legal recruiting departments, I just leave messages that never get returned.

I saw Kirkland at a job fair 6 wks ago and still have not heard back (either rejection or callback). If I cared, I would be upset. If they cared, they probably would have let me know what they had decided.

Fried Frank and Debevoise, both 1 to 2 day turnarounds. NY is such a stronger market than Chicago this year.
