CB with Weil later this week, extremely excited. Would love to hear interview advice, timelines, experiences, stats from those who have received offers from them.

Had a CB with Weil.

Everyone was super chill. Kind of weird-nice (like, quirky/eccentric, but not necessarily in a bad way). They took me around to a few different departments (even though I really only expressed interest in bankruptcy). There was a reception with drinks after which was a cool way to talk to and get to know people, lots of associates from corporate attended from what I remembered. There was about 20 people there that were finishing interviews.

Had an offer a bit above median at CCN but I was a good interviewer (had success elsewhere) so I'm not sure if that's a good data point. I think i bombed my screener but I still had a cb (I think this was bc interest in BK).



Callback was either the next day or within 2 days. Pretty fast.

Feel free to ask other questions.

Congrats!

1) How long between CB and offer?
2) What kinds of things were they most receptive to during your interviews? Anything out of the ordinary?

Had a callback there tonight. Seemed to be at least 30-40 other students at the post-interviews reception.

Any word on when offers will be extended from tonight's callbacks? I interview at night later this week, I'm stoked. Love this firm.

I haven't heard from last night yet. Other than the one anecdote above, does anyone have any insight into how long CB -> offer timeline is generally?

So if we don't hear by noon I guess our chances are very slim? Is anyone else bugging out?

Curious about people's experiences at satellite offices (specifically SV). Have a CB coming up and not sure what to expect.
