Edelson?

Post by Anonymous User » Thu Aug 07, 2014 10:32 am

From what I gather via google they're either amazing or the worst. I'm attracted to the atmosphere that they portray on their website & how they don't want to baby their summers.

That being said - has anyone here actually got real info?

Jay Edelson is a narcissist who can dish it, but not take it.

Yeah, he took a shot at me about my background, and I took one back at him about his shirt.

Him: Sorry we went over, Mr. MMA fighter, DON'T HIT ME (gesticulates wildly when he says don't hit me)
Me: Don't worry, I don't strike men in pink shirts.

My Edelson interview experience went something like this:

Edelson associate #1: (Brings up place I worked that temporarily housed and found jobs for homeless people living with HIV/AIDS until they could support themselves), then: "Well, that sounds like a big fucking waste of time."
Me: "Excuse me?"
Edelson associate #1: "Just kidding." (Continues interview)

I heard a number of pretty crazy interview stories from other students as well.

For what it's worth, Edelson associate #2 in the room was incredibly nice and answered my questions honestly. Also, Edelson's office set-up is pretty cool, if you're into that kind of thing.
