Anybody else doing this? Bidding closes in a few hours...

Yep, just found out about it today and piled all of my material together and cast my net at almost all of the firms. If none bite, then whatever there's still regular OCI.

Same here. Do you know if this is 100% preselect? Any idea when we are supposed to hear back about bids? I assume around July 11 since that's when we can start accepting interviews, but there just isn't much information out about the fair (at least that I have found - happy to be corrected about that).

If it works similarly to other career fairs, then the date on symplicity showing when we can start accepting interviews is the date interviews will be available online for us to accept. So 1 week from exactly, on July 11th at 12:00am is when we'll find out.

I believe they pre-select. I applied as well.

Has the entire bid list been removed? I no longer have a drop-down menu.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Thu Jul 05, 2012 12:01 pm

Anyone here attend the one last year? Any comment or opinion on how it went or what to expect? I have never been to a legal job fair.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Thu Jul 05, 2012 9:42 pm

Yes it looks like everything is gone for now...

I heard some interviews were posted. Don't know how many.

I just received a few invites.

Same here. Do we know if there are more to come considering the original date to review interviews was the 11th? Or do we think this is it?

I am not sure. I am happy though. These are good agencies and firms.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 10, 2012 6:13 pm

Got 2 interview requests of my 14. Not sure if that's all I'm getting or if there's more to come.

Happy with the 2 I got, but would be slightly disappointed if that's it.

Comfortable saying which two?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 10, 2012 6:29 pm

Snagged 3 interviews... I am extremely pleased.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 10, 2012 6:30 pm

So far so good. Got a few that were on my bid list, so now I can remove them and add others ― using the theory that firms do not want to interview anyone twice.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 10, 2012 6:34 pm

Also got a few interviews. I'm wondering if only a few firms have turned in their selections since it seems early.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 10, 2012 6:36 pm

Is anyone here a rising 3L?

I'm interviewing with 2 of the 5 firms/agencies considering 3Ls, but for whatever reason, the City of Philadelphia Law Department is not one of them. Did anyone get a slot with them?

Not a 3L but bid on them and didn't hear anything. Anybody hear from Stradley, Ballard or Cozen?
