Anybody else go to that crazy weekend CB? Supposedly 40 (~20 at the weekend one and ~ 20 on weekdays before and after) people were called back for 5 spots.

Let's see if any of us get an offer.

ETA: Vandy here

Yeah but they're going to have to give out more offers than that. Not sure I can post my school without outing myself.

How does it make financial sense for them to call back so many people? They must be dropping $50,000 on recruiting. I don't get it.

I didn't count people but it didn't seem like 20 were there. Did they seriously callback 40 people?

Yeah per one of the recruiters

I wouldn't be surprised if they have out at least ten offers because they're unlikely to have a super high yield. That's 25%, which, while not high by any measure, still isn't that crazy.

FWIW, Cadwalader Charlotte will only give out 5 offers at a time and then will not give out any more offers until those people have made their decision to accept/decline.

I'm not sure why Cadwalader Charlotte would have a low yield, $160k in Charlotte is a pretty sweet deal.

did any of the recruiters mention how soon offers might go out?

I heard one say early to mid-September at the soonest so they can accommodate all the other people coming in for weekday CB's after the weekend one. She implied it wasn't rolling.

Anything?

Is this the week?

Offer yesterday

Are you accepting? School range?

So....V?

Not the above anon, but TBF I did meet a Michigan dude on the CB.

Anyone know what their historical offer rate is? Looks like they offered 3 out of 3 this summer, but what about before then?

So I guess it is safe to assume all the offers went out on Tuesday? Anyone else hear anything?

the offer rate has always been 100%, except for maybe one summer like 12 years ago. FYI, it was 5/5 this summer.

160 in Charlotte is nice, but there are some pretty clear drawbacks to the job as well.

Go on...

FWIW, 160k in Charlotte is equivalent to $371,982 in Manhattan.

Is this really the case? If it is, they're moving to the top of my list. I thought southern firms, and especially those with small SA classes, love to no offer people.

Cadwalader is not a "southern firm" at all. It is a New York firm with an office in the south. Cadwalader Charlotte and DC will always give 100% offers. Being no-offered here is a complete non-issue.
