Northwestern Jan. 2021 OCI

Post by Anonymous User » Sat Jan 02, 2021 7:20 pm

10 days left, anyone down to ruminate about this? Would love to compare bid lists. Hopefully my grades go up come Jan. 6 and I can use the generous 22 hour window to fix my list.

I'm happy to chime in and share any wisdom. I've only been through the process once, obviously, so its a little limited.

If you haven't, reach out to career services. Outside of that, it just comes down to interviewing well. Firms generally send partners/associates who are generally charismatic. you'll really be fine.

I'm pretty nervous about bidding strategy. Currently I have 9. Paul Hastings (Chi)(20), 10. Kirkland (Chi)(80), 11. Sidley (Chi)(60), 12. Skadden (Chi)(60). Feels way too late for Skadden, but does anyone know where I need to put those?

does anyone know the usual CB timeline for chi offices (kirkland, jenner, sidley, mb)? feel like it'll be slower since they're doing this at multiple schools.
