How Long Before I Should Start Getting Nervous?
Clearly, I already am. Had a callback with a NY firm on Tuesday. Have not heard back from them yet. Typically how long do NY big law firms take to get back to you with an offer (or rejection)?

It's not the answer you want to hear, but don't get nervous, hustle. You may have been dinged, they may be waiting 2 weeks to decide. You can't control their process, you can control how many resumes you send out per day. Worst thing you can do right now is sit by your phone curled up in a ball.

Turnaround time for offers from NY firms usually is pretty fast, but there's no fixed window—you might still hear positive news. Either way, Bluem is right—all you can control right now is your hustle.
