Top Law Schools

With today being the last day of Emory's Early OCI, just wanted to start a thread to keep track of when people are starting to hear from specific firms and when callbacks are being offered/scheduled. I will try to update this as people respond to indicate where callbacks have already began to be offered.

(note: I'm only including Atlanta firms in the OP, but feel free to mention Emory in NY/DC callbacks)

For reference, here are some of the Atlanta firms from Early OCI:

Alston + Bird
Arnall Golden Gregory
Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz
Bickel & Brewer (TX)
Bondurant, Mixson & Elmore
Bryan Cave
Chamberlain, Hrdlicka, White, Williams & Aughtry
Chambliss, Bahner & Stophel (TN)
Epstein Becker & Green
Fish & Richardson
Troutman Sanders
Fisher & Phillips
Foltz Martin
Ford & Harrison
Holland & Knight
Jones Day
Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton
King & Spalding
McKenna Long & Aldridge
Miller & Martin
Nelson Mullins
Owen Gleaton Egan Jones & Sweeney
Parker, Hudson, Rainer & Dobbs
Paul Hastings
Rogers & Hardin
Smith, Gambrell & Russell
Sutherland
Swift, Currie, McGhee & Hiers

paul hastings has been giving out call backs

Anyone else?

I've heard Kilpatrick has also made callbacks

Haven't heard a thing from early OCI but OMM and White & Case from NY. Also, anyone get depressed by the fall OCI list?

the fall oci list is shameful.

so just kilpatrick and paul hastings have made cbs so far?

Dear god. Well I got dinged from both NY and ATL KS. I guess it's to be expected since their class sizes are pitiful.

Also for emory NY: Kenyon Kenyon, cadwalader, and dechert have given call backs

Also OMM, Stroock, Skadden, Cravath, and Proskauer

How did they notify you? by email or snail mail?

Also thank you for starting this thread anon, I was thinking I would if no one else did just because so far I've heard nothing and was wondering if others were in the same boat.

School e-mail (or whatever you put on your resume, I guess).

are u guys from atlanta or out of state? trying to figure out why KS is dinging top 5%...

Probably competition from T14s and Vanderbilt.

Well... if K&S is only taking a small number of s.a.'s in Atlanta, then it's not unreasonable that they would only call back a small number of people from any one particular school. Still, it sucks pretty hard.

I haven't heard anything from a few major players (A+B, McKenna, Sutherland), so hope endures. Unless those firms have already started making calls, in which case...

Was the NY ding via email? No good or bad news so far..

Drinker Biddle callbacks are out too

NY email dings from OMM and Kasowitz

are these email dings just coming out now, this late at night? or did they happen earlier in the day?

Depressing, does Emory LR get ATL biglaw?

If Emory's top 10% + LR doesn't get an NLJ firm/federal clerkship, something is wrong.
