Bracewell, no. They're still sending out callback invitations.

Has anyone seen anything out of Winston's Houston or Dallas offices? I didn't get a screener but submitted directly and am curious if there's been any movement.

Sent in an app early January for Dallas and nothing since. Anyone else waiting to hear back from several OCI screeners?

I received my first offer today! After 22 Screeners and 5 callbacks, I finally got a biglaw offer in Dallas. This is an insanely difficult market but firms are still sending out offers.

Congrats! In a similar boat except the offer hasn’t come through yet. Comfortably above median at G-town. Mind disclosing which firm?

I’m supposed to hear back this week from a firm in Houston after two callback interviews. So I don’t think it’s done, but it has slowed to a trickle.

Good luck friend. Hope we both get job offers soon. Stressful time but coming out the other side

Absolutely ghosted by DLA.

Has anyone heard anything from Winston, V&E, or Katten? Mix of Dallas and Houston.

edit: would like to echo and validate everyone expressing their stress.

I have no idea. It feels like every midsize firm is done hiring, too. I am honestly terrified.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
