CB timing Forum

[Anonymous User]

Is it safe to say a lot of CBs come usually a week after OCI week? Did 15 at a T10 and havent heard a thing.

I know the conservative TLS crowd will say start mass mailing asap, but I'm wondering if it's fairly common for a lot of lower V firms (50 and below) to take more time than the big players, like gibson/sidley/etc.

Any 3Ls or graduates have any insight?

Some come day of. Some come day after. Some come the week after. Some may never come.

It really depends on how desirable a candidate you are. You should really talk to your classmates or post in your school's OCI thread to see if your firm interviewer called anyone yet.

You should be plugged in with friends/classmates/here to see when different firm offices have been putting out CBs. Schedules vary from office to office, but safe to say that if you interviewed with, say, Kirkland Chicago, and classmates from the same OCI as you are reporting CBs from them while you're on radio silence, that's bad.

Man you have to start massmailing today, I can't believe people still think it's not for them or conservative. Same thing happened to me with top 1/4 at a T10. I struck out at OCI. What saved me was mass mailing and I ended up with several offers but you have to start now. Do nothing but mass mail. Mass mail the big NYC offices and anywhere you have even loose ties. You very likely have struck out at OCI.
