Was this a callback?
I was invited to interview with a firm I mass mailed. After I met with the partner who handles the summer program, she said shed like me to meet with another partner (managing). I met with him and he walked me out after. I asked what the timeline was and he said they have callbacks next week and ill hear something within two weeks. Was this an insta-callback thing? I liked the firm a lot, so would it be weird if I sent them an email thanking them and saying that if an offer is extended I will accept?

Re: Was this a callback?
Go ahead and send a thank you. Don't say you will accept if offered.

It smacks of desperation. Being flexible and eager is good. Being desperate is not. Nobody wants someone who is desperate; this is applicable to all areas of life.Anonymous User wrote:Any reason why not?TooOld4This wrote:Go ahead and send a thank you. Don't say you will accept if offered.

Re: Was this a callback?
It sounds desperate and, IMHO, shows poor judgment. Your are engaged in a bit of theater. Both you and the firm are pretending that this is a long-term decision. Blindly accepting without either weighing other options or inquiring about the terms suggests you aren't really taking the process seriously (or you are desperate and have nothing else).Anonymous User wrote:Any reason why not?TooOld4This wrote:Go ahead and send a thank you.
