Latham DC Screener 7/7
"1-2 weeks to hear back" the following Monday
Ding today.

Same interview date, same email, but radio silence for me. Not sure at all what it means. Just want to hear *something* at all.

Anyone heard from DPW recently? Had my callback the middle of last week.

DPW NY right? Callback last Thursday, offer this Tuesday. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

[Anonymous User]

Has S&C or kirkland and ellis Bay Area given offers yet? Waiting about a week post callback and nothing yet and really starting to get worried.

[Anonymous User]

Did anyone that participated in the CCBA fair yesterday get a callback yet?

In general, are callback timelines the same for screeners at job fairs vs direct apps?

I got three calls from same day through today from Mayer, NGE, and Faegre.

Did you apply for the diversity scholarship position? Congratulations on the offer by the way!

Chill out re DPW. I got an offer the next day, and I have friends who it took over a week to get an offer. You're in the running until youre not. They will send a rejection email if they want to reject you.

If a recruiting director confirmed my offer acceptance email and cc'ed the recruiting team for "acceptance details" yesterday, at what point should I reach out if I have not heard anything since then? Thanks!

Like 2 weeks. Just take it easy.

I applied to Latham NY pre-OCI in June and updated my resume last two weeks ago (got a confirmation about the resume update) . should I accept that they don't want to interview me? what's the application --> screener/CB timeline for pre-OCI ?

No I did not, just normal 2023 SA. And thank you!

Just got a CB from STB DC. Had a screener with them on July 1. Probably getting off a waitlist...

[Anonymous User]

Anyone aware of White & Case NY cb to offer timelines?

[Anonymous User]

Sitting on offers from STB and SullCrom Bay Area offices right now. Would I be crazy to cancel OCI except for Gibson, Keker, and O'Melveny and just move on with my life?

[Anonymous User]

offer from latham (ny), cb yesterday

Anyone hear back from Skadden DC after callbacks?

Of course not, so long as you would be enthusiastic to take one of the offers you already have and they don't expire before the end of OCI.

Latham screener last week, CB offer last night

Is this for NY office?

[Anonymous User]

offer from latham (ny), cb yesterday

Congrats! How long did it take from screener-->cb?

[Anonymous User]

Anyone interviewing at STB early last week received offer/rejection?

[Anonymous User]

Does anyone know Quinn LA's offer timeline? Just did a callback there today. It was a little weird too -- they asked me almost no questions and just started by asking me what questions I had for them about the firm. Not sure if that's normal for them.

[Anonymous User]

Have not heard from DPW NY 11 days after my cb (though they said they would reply in a week), and received an email from STB NY saying they will make the decision after OCI.

I guess I'm in waitlist for both.. Any idea what's the chance of not getting a rejection in the end

[Anonymous User]

which day of the week / time do firms usually call / email about their decisions after cb?

Data point: Low T14, top 10%, law review, lit focus.

Pre-OCI callbacks at:

Quinn NY
DPW
Skadden
Debevoise
Weil

Pre-OCI screeners at:

Cravath
Covington

Offer from one of the first five, dings from the other four. Dinged by Cravath. Radio silence from Cov

It's hard out here my dudes. But doing pre-OCI was worth it to get an offer. Still doing OCI next week

Interesting - exact same creds except + moot court.

Quinn NY & Gibson told me to catch them at OCI. Didn't apply to Skadden until late July so they said the same - would've likely gotten a CB if I applied earlier. Deb ghosted me. Didn't apply to Cravath or Covington. PW & Wilmer ghosted. W&C also said catch you at OCI.

DPW, S&C, STB offered. Weil and Cleary scheduled interviews which I cancelled.

FWIW 100% conversion rate from CB to offers (some outside of NY market not mentioned above too).

Takeaway - apply broadly - we have no idea what will stick for which firms.

[Anonymous User]

Have heard nothing from Cov after callback a week and a half ago, just thought I'd mention.

I got half of my CB invitations/offers on Friday.
