Jenner & Block LLP
After hiring 46 SA's in 2009, Jenner & Block's Chicago office hired only 16 SA's in 2010 and is anticipating hiring the same number in 2011, should we expect a rebound in J&B's hiring in 2012?

How does any firm sustain such a dramatic decrease in associates?

Re: Jenner & Block LLP
Obviously, but a few major firms in Chicago have returned to near pre-2009 hiring levels. I was wondering if those in the know anticipated J&B to do the same (Fall 2012).Julio_El_Chavo wrote:Uhhhh... you realize the economy still blows, right?columbia86 wrote:After hiring 46 SA's in 2009, Jenner & Block's Chicago office hired only 16 SA's in 2010 and is anticipating hiring the same number in 2011, should we expect a rebound in J&B's hiring in 2012?

Re: Jenner & Block LLP
Of the major players, only Kirkland & Ellis and Sidley Austin are at pre-2009 hiring levels. Others are slowly picking up.Julio_El_Chavo wrote:Which major firms in Chicago have returned to near pre-2009 hiring levels?columbia86 wrote:Obviously, but a few major firms in Chicago have returned to near pre-2009 hiring levels.

Also, my second question was not specific to J&B, it was a general inquiry relating to firm infrastructure.

Re: Jenner & Block LLP
I believe Sidley actually hired more this year than in 2009, Kirkland about the same.

Re: Jenner & Block LLP
Thanks for the correction, ND. Any input/insight on the amount of SA's Jenner will be hiring in 2012 would also be appreciated.ndirish2010 wrote:I believe Sidley actually hired more this year than in 2009, Kirkland about the same.
