I got called by Jones Day last week to go to Dallas for an interview. Anyone know the chances of getting an offer for a 1L? I'm also interested in IP if that changes things.
Also, any tips?

I was an SA there and I'll be heading back. I don't know what the particular chances are, but I don't necessarily think they evaluate recruits much differently than any other firm/office does. The attorneys responded really well to knowing particular things about JD and the practice areas at the office. Not being a tool is important, of course... I talked football with the recruiters for the first 45 minutes I was in the office, to give you an idea.
The IP group is pretty close-knit from what I know, so I'm sure getting along with them specifically will be important.
Just be attentive and amiable, ask follow-up questions, and use the info you get in each interview to come up with more tailored questions regarding the firm/office during the following interviews.
