ok, cool! That's great. You have an awesome shot at landing a NY job. Just do your research on the firms, and try to go into your callbacks confidently. I know you're probably disappointed by the total # of callbacks, but in the end of the day you can only accept 1 job, anyway, and you're almost certainly going to come out with an offer. just try to stay positive and upbeat, and you'll be fine.

good luck!

Sorry. I also interviewed with multiple offices and I heard back from Skadden Chi but not Skadden NY so I was curious as to whether I was rejected via snail mail and hadn't gotten it yet from the Ny office or if I was in the "maybe" pile.

I think they generally suspend one callback and then just offer you at both if you do well at the first one.

Absolutely unnecessary for screener. Maybe for CBs, though probably a waste of time.
