Any idea how long post-CB DPW has been taking for offers? Or any recent offers at all?

For anyone with a w&c CB---specifically for NY
- did you do a regular screener in addition to the video screener
- did you apply for the first generation scholarshiPp
I only did a video screener - didn't apply for first gen though
For anyone with a W&C NY CB, how soon before your interview did they email you with the meeting link and interviewer details? My interview is tomorrow morning and haven't heard anything so I'm getting a bit nervous...

Is it possible or likely to pick up any screeners/CBs this late in the pre-OCI process?

I’m sitting on an offer but I applied to like 10 firms and I’ve only heard back from 2 lol

Yes. Applied to STB earlier this week and got an email about scheduling a CB. Also had some screeners through pre-OCI for non-major markets I have ties to, but that's not what TLS usually cares about.

Varies a lot by firm. If you go through this thread, you'll see S&C offers next day, while some people have waited several weeks for DPW or STB and still got offers. But now OCI is just around the corner so IDK how that will affect things.

Skadden LA?

Insofar as Latham LA is concerned, all I heard was that the committee was meeting on a rolling basis.

There's no rule for this even within the same firm. It depends on when the next hiring committee meeting is (often seems like they are irregular), and probably how many applications they have built up to review and how strong of a candidate you appear to be.

STB email saying a decision will be made "likely after campus interviews." Basically an outright waitlist.
Has anyone else received this email?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
