So it appears that I am about to strike out through the OCI process. I am above median at a mid T14 and am wondering if people know of some good firms to target in a mass mail that do not do all of their recruiting through OCI or are still recruiting?

Interested as well. I didn't bid NYC (mostly because I would rather work literally anywhere in the country than there), but now I'm beginning to regret that decision.

Cahill did a lot of mass mail CBs last year. I didn't interview there until October and got an offer.

Any of them that you haven't mass mailed or interviewed with yet.

This late in your game, most of them firms that will give you a chance at getting an offer are firms that are worried they might not have enough people accept their offers to fill a summer class. I remember reading last year in late September that Goodwin NY didn't have a single person accept their offers.

Point is, deciding who is going to take more applicants in mid to late September is probably a crap shoot. Not many firms plan on looking through resumes on Sept. 15 for possible applicants. Thus, no one is going to give you a list of firms to apply to. Just apply broadly, and hope something comes up

Do not go for firms people would take within a heartbeat. Do not go for firms with tiny classes. Go for something in between.

This.
