Damn this thread has been exploding! I have a few CBs lined up, all from networking with partners, but they're only scheduled starting this week and I even have ones scheduled two weeks from now -- is that too late for pre-oci??

Has anyone done the Pymetrics assessment for OMM?

Maybe they'll ask for my horoscope or enneagram next.

Did you express a preference for lit or transactional work?

Yes. All-in on transactional.
I'm convincing myself that this is why I have been completely ghosted from DPW and STB for three and two weeks respectively now. For what it's worth, my career services advisor is the one who gave me that idea in the first place. Those of us who have said we're lit-focused—all may not be lost.

All hope is lost. I have an offer to another V10 at least. Just wanted to be in the cool kids' multiple-offer club.

How'd you apply to Cooley? Direct email to office recruiter? I can't find anything on the website (that's not a patent program, etc.)

I want to know this too - I'm in the same spot as you are (although I had a Skadden screener).

Does anyone know the timelines for Latham NY or Orrick NY? I applied 1.5 weeks ago and two weeks ago, respectively. I finished the Latham assessment a few days ago.

Also, Debevoise said they didn't have a pre-OCI interview slot, the number of which is apparently limited, for me. They did tell me to bid on them for OCI. But would you say my chances might be lower since I they didn't give me a pre-OCI interview slot?

For reference, I'm top third at a low T14 and have done a lot of networking.

Had a CB with a top 20 DC firm yesterday (I don't want to post the firm bc I am too cautious). Got it through networking. I had only sent in my resume prior to the CB, and I didn't have a screener. They still haven't asked me for a transcript. What should I make of this? I thought the CB went super well, but who really knows.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
