PSA: If you're on hold at your top firm, career services might hook you up

TLDR:
1. CB at firm.

2. Radio silence.

3. Career services asks us to let them know if we're waiting to hear from any firms where we would accept if offered.

4. I let career services know that yes, I am.

5. Offer later that day.

I don't know if my school contacted the firm or this was just coincidence, but it can't hurt to ask your career services office if you're in a similar situation. I can't imagine my school is the only one to do something like this.

Radio silence was 2 weeks, and the market is Houston.
