I'll probably attend. Don't think I'll apply to anything though.

I keep thinking I am until more jobs get posted. Also, does anyone know if we update the resume under the documents sections, whether that updates for all the jobs we've applied to? Or do we have to go cancel the interview request and then re-request?

No. You could be taking a step backward by doing this. I believe that EJW consists exclusively of screener interviews, not callbacks, so if you've already passed through the screener you already had, you're risking getting put back in the pile of people they haven't decided whether to let through yet.

Checking in. The employers have our resume, as one of the PD offices emailed me to ask if I had taken a clinic.

Or at least can you confirm whether it's PDS?

Does anybody have an idea of timelines? As in, when do we start hearing back about potential interviews? 3L here. Applied exclusively to PD offices.

From what I have read from older threads I wouldn't look into it too much. Basically you have to have taken clinic (or something similar) to be certified to practice while waiting for bar results so they won't even bother to interview you if you haven't.

Good luck everyone!

According to the schedule preselect begins today and goes until 10/1. So we'll find out within the next two weeks.
