An FYI for anyone interviewing at Cravath - the days of "getting an offer at the end of the day or not at all" are over.

Canceled Skadden and Sidley CBs. Decided to go to another market, but those still stung. Hope someone else gets a spot as a result.

Haha I know the feeling. I came home to find SIX rejection letters from OCI firms, all of whom were so pleased to meet me.

Of course I also came home with four offers so whatever --

Students aren't supposed to hold open more than five offers at a time.

Skadden NY ding via snail (from screener)

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Mon Sep 19, 2011 5:07 pm

Just got home to find not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven, but eight rejections in the mail. They're all from screeners (I moved and the mail forwarding took a bit of time to catch up).

I almost prefer the comically large number all at once to a death-by-a-thousand-cuts rejection, but it still sucks.

If you need me I'll be in the corner drinking all of the bleach in my apartment.
