Waiting for an offer/ding from a V20 CB last week in a major non-NY market. If dinged, then I’d have struck out.

Any hope-inspiring stories?

Sure, a firm took a week and a half to get back to me and in pre-OCI, a firm took 2 months. But you should be mass-mailing and proceeding under the assumption you are about to strike out. If this lottery ticket works out, hey good for you, but you need to prepare for the worst case.

At this point aren't we kinda SOL? 2L hiring is closed in most places from what I heard.
