Philly and Wilmington CB/Offer Tea Leaves

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Aug 18, 2014 10:15 pm

I thought it might be helpful to aggregate the "data" from the various school-specific OCI threads for those who have had or will have callbacks in Philly this season. I realize this has the potential to aggravate neuroticism and cause additional stress. But as someone who has yet to receive any offers here or in other markets, I think it can also be a huge relief to know whether we can stop holding our breath about certain firms or feel hopeful that certain firms haven't really started extending offers yet.

With that said, here's mine so far. Will edit to reflect dings or offers, if any.

Callbacks attended:
- Blank Rome
- Reed Smith
- Cozen O'Connor (dinged)

Callbacks pending:
- Pepper Hamilton
- Dechert
- Duane Morris
- Drinker Biddle

Had a Ballard CB over a week ago and have heard nothing. My Morgan Lewis & Dechert callbacks aren't for another few weeks. Also haven't heard anything from my Duane Morris screener last week.

Anyone actually gotten offers yet? I wonder whether this huge delay is normal for Philly. Hard to tell from the dates in threads from previous years.

Those who have already had/have CBs scheduled with Wilmington firms, what school are you at?

Penn. I didn't see any Wilmington firms at Penn OCI though. All CBs were through networking.

I meant that I didn't have any screeners with them at OCI, though I can see how the phrasing could be confusing.

RLF has done v few CBs so far, FWIW. Not a place to worry if your interview is scheduled later.

Do you mean offers? Duane callbacks have been going on for about two weeks I think.

Anyone have any sense of ballad's CB => offer timeline. Had my CB almost two weeks ago and haven't heard anything.

Are you from Penn? It could just be that Penn's OCI is so early.

I've heard of a few through the grapevine, but my information could be wrong. I'm 100% that callbacks have started though.
