Where do I find offer rates of past summers?
the current NALP listings only list the 2015 summer associate offer rates for firms. Is there any place I can find the offer rates for the past 2, 3, 4, or 5 summers? Any websites, etc?

Can't help you, but what exactly are you looking for? In most cases, a firm doesn't change its offer rate too much from year to year. Determining that a typical 100% firm offered only 95% four years ago isnt going to tell you anything.

Did you ask why? Did they give you any sort of reason?Anonymous User wrote: Wish i knew. I was blindsided, had 0 idea it was coming and still don't know what the reason was. Was in secondary market tho fwiw.
I ask because no offers (in biglaw) are mostly due to (1) social/work screwup (2) bad firm financial downturn.
It's pretty easy to tell you got no offered for (1), but the firm may not admit to (2) in no offering you.

Re: Where do I find offer rates of past summers?
I didn't ask. They gave OCS a BS reason. I'm just trying to move on at this point. I'm not an idiot though. I did good work, turned everything in on time and I was social without being stupid.favabeansoup wrote:Did you ask why? Did they give you any sort of reason?Anonymous User wrote: Wish i knew.

Re: Where do I find offer rates of past summers?
Would you have gone to a different firm if you had seen that the firm was like 95 or 90% offer 3-5 years ago? If so, I still think that's silly. Sucks that you got no offered, but this info likely would not have prevented the scenario.Anonymous User wrote:As someone who got no offered from a firm that was 100% on nalp when i looked but hadn't been in the past: I disagree.RaceJudicata wrote:Can't help you, but what exactly are you looking for?

TBH I was 50/50 between two firms. Might have been enough to convince me to swing the other way.RaceJudicata wrote: Would you have gone to a different firm if you had seen that the firm was like 95 or 90% offer 3-5 years ago?
