Anyone have any advice or comments about the BLG Fair?

Is there not a thread about this year's BLG job fair? For what it's worth, firms seem to have started calling back people.

I don't see any other ones. Do you know which firms have started calling? I've only heard of a few email dings.

I haven't received any dings, but I've heard from Choate Hall and Ropes & Gray.

CB from Ropes and GP

Great. Guess that means I didn't get them.

Congrats, though! (and I do mean that with all sincerity)

My calls were pretty late in the work day, probably around 4:30pm.

Has anyone heard from: Hinckley Allen, Edwards Wildman, Brown Rudnick, or Mintz (other than the immediate CBs)?

Callback for Mintz and Edwards

What other firms have folks heard from?

CB from Mintz, Goulston, and Foley through BLG. Has anyone heard from Hinckley or Fish?

Which interviewers - for Edwards, was it the male or female interviewer? For Mintz, morning or afternoon?

Congratulations on getting those two!

I've heard (outside of TLS) of dings from: Wilmer, Ropes, Goulston, and Goodwin.

I've heard (outside of TLS) of CBs with Mintz and Ropes (IIRC) and others but I don't remember which firms - sorry!

Ding from Hinckley Allen via snail mail. Seemed like a great fit and interview (though tough to tell with someone who jokes the entire interview with many people), too.

Edwards with the guy...

Has anyone heard from Jones Day?

I had the female, so maybe there's a chance still. haha

Not yet

Email ding from Edwards Wildman (female interview)

Has anyone done a CB with Ropes, Mintz or Choate? How did it go?

Anyone doing callbacks with Ropes and Edwards?

CB w. Ropes & Gray

Has anyone done one with Ropes and what was the format?

Callback with Choate----rejection letter about a week later...ah well.

Pretty standard although on the longer end of the spectrum. You'll meet with a total of 5 people ranging in seniority and then be taken to lunch by two associates, assuming you have a morning interview. The first interview will be short, around 15 min, and the hiring committee interview will be 20 min rather than 30 min. The atmosphere was very relaxed and I did not get asked any oddball questions. It was mostly just chatting about my resume. One thing to note is that they will ask you which other firms you are considering.

When was your callback? I start thinking that I will get the rejection letter soon.

Haven't heard back from CBs with Mintz or Foley yet. What about others?

CB w. Mintz: I was told on or shortly after Sept 1st and they are doing three-four days of callbacks.
