Ropes offer!

Mind sharing what the timeframe was from callback to offer? Also what market?

Call back was Wednesday and offer was Monday the following week and NY

What time of day did they call to make an offer?

They called at like 4-5 pm

STB NY offer today. CB a month ago. ~top 35% urm at lower T14.

Date of CB?

6/24

How do you know if you’re waitlisted from STB?

they sent emails to several people saying something along the lines of: “we like you but we’re gonna wait to give you a decision until after OCI”

Anyone heard of further movement from Kirkland? Ding from Willkie yesterday. Kinda shook.

edit: still waiting on STB but not hopeful

CB with Weil last Wednesday afternoon--still haven't heard back (as of Tuesday 2:30pm). Should I just give up waiting and move on?

No but if you don’t hear by this Friday, I’d say you should chalk it up as an L and move on (but never know)

I had a callback a few weeks ago- totally ghosted by everyone, but I am certainly not giving up hope. I am sure that the recruiting department at Weil is good enough to send me a rejection letter if they wanted to reject me. I imagine that im on some sort of waitlist and I will continue to hope for the best.

Where did you interview?? I had a straight to CB with Weil DC 3 weeks ago and was told they weren't making decisions until the end of this week (at the earliest), so don't lose hope!

Interviewed in NY. I absolutely will not give up hope! Good luck!

Sorry to hear. Would you mind saying when you interviewed at Willkie (or the approximate time gap between CB and decision?)

[Anonymous User]

anyone heard anything back from S&C, if you did a CB with them this week?

Anyone who was dinged by White & Case post-CB, how soon after your CB did you hear back?

Does anyone have any insight on how long the following firms take to offer a callback?
Norton Rose Fulbright
Sidley Austin
Kirkland & Ellis

Did Pre-OCI screeners with these firms, and haven't heard back yet. Specifically in the Houston office.

Anyone get any Skadden acceptance gifts?

STB screener a few days ago, no word yet on CB.

Anyone know what the typical timeline is to hear about a CB, or does STB ghost?

Any updates?

Has ANYBODY heard back about callbacks after a screener for Kirkland DC? I know many have heard from Kirkland NYC and Chicago with callbacks and offers, but I haven't heard of any movement with Kirkland DC after screenr.

Not pre-oci so sorry if its not helpful, but Kirkland DC CBs are out at my school.

Still haven't heard from 3 places I did CB's with pre-OCI.

DPW offer yesterday from a pre-OCI callback last Wednesday

[Anonymous User]

Has anybody heard from king and Spalding's cb?

[Anonymous User]

Accepting my STB offer tomorrow! Tough decision but their PE work plus my interests in credit and real estate pushed me that way. Also liked the people a lot.

Gonna be declining my offers at DPW and Weil, so hopefully that helps open a slot up for someone else.

Good luck everyone!!
