Figured I'd get this started. I interviewed last week Wednesday as part of that callback reception evening. Still no word.

I haven't had mine yet but do have a Q for you.Did you get your interviewer schedule in advance (night before or whatever) for your CB? Can't remember if they told me they would send email or not. Thanks!

Ya, email came pretty late the night before. Though they ended up switching up my schedule the day of and I only found out when I got there.

I know of two people who have received offers who interviewed that night

Do you know when they got the call with the offer?

One Monday afternoon, the other Tuesday morning. I know other people who interviewed that night have not received rejections or offers yet.

I interviewed Aug 20 - offer Monday Aug 25.

Has there been any movement since Labor Day?

Is there any difference between people who interview at the cb nights vs. individual interviews. Does one receive offers more so than the other? Any insights/guesses are welcome

interview last Tuesday, offer Friday

Anyone from FF's evening program on Tuesday, Sept. 9 hear back yet?

Neither rejection nor offer from Fried Frank's Tuesday 9/9 event as of today. Don't know anybody who has heard either way yet.

All's still quiet by me as well. Guessing we'll hear tomorrow? Best of luck all around!

I dunno, I haven't rec'd an invitation.The partner who offered me didn't mention it, though I doubt he would be in the loop on that kind of stuff.

Any info on late Sept. offers or insight on whether they extend offers via email on the weekends (I know some firms do this).

Bump

Any news today?

I think they're waiting to hear from some of us. Fwiw I will probably be accepting next week

Even despite them losing three big name partners last week, which followed 2 partner departures in in March, and more last year?

Wow, I hadn't seen that she'd left - that's scary. I'm gonna hit up some alums from my school and I also have a second look planned.

Agree, normally I'd chalk a partner defection up to good poaching by another firm but when the 11 year chair of the firm leaves and brings other partners with her, it's a bit of a red flag.

Anyone accepted offers/know people who are still waiting on them?

I feel like FF is just going in another direction. Valerie Ford was only co-chair and was going to step down in 2015 anyway. The other co-chair, David Greenwald, used to be partner at FF, moved to Goldman, and came back as co-chair. IMO the firm is moving in another direction, perhaps trying to build better ties with Goldman.

I'm not sure what impact this has on the lit dept. since the departing partners were all corp practitioners.
