I hear that's because Covington actually tries to check with all your references early on.

Any Sutherland movement?

PS: to all future GW students, unless you are in the top 10 percent or better, do not exclusively bid on DC. The brutality of this market cannot be understated.

Gw students must mass mail, must bid very conservatively, bid new york, and pray.

unless your on law review from GW- mass mailing to big firms between DC and Boston is going to prove pretty fruitless. Though, I agree its necessary to do all you can to try anyway.

Wow, that's creepy. I'm glad I got dinged early on. Everyone I know who did callbacks with Covington were not at all impressed, and they found the attorneys there to be douchey and/or socially awkward. My screener managed to reflect both of those traits.
