What is the rule with applying to multiple offices? I have a couple of different markets that I am interested in and have only been getting interviews at the market I have the strongest ties with.
Do not go to a top school, but one of the top students at a T1
Different firms have different policies. Your career services office should have more info on this.
The career office is no help at my current school. My current rule of thumb is sending applications to different markets unless the same recruitment contact is listed. I figure it is worth the risk as a T1 student trying to get a spot. Would you concur?

Are you applying through (pre-)OCI or just cold emailing? I have no specific knowledge here but would assume it's fine to do that if the latter.

Online applications mostly. No big law comes to current school's OCI. May be transferring into a T10 school however. Will that raise any issues when it comes to bid at the school, assuming I end up transferring?

People who've had screeners, how long after applying have you been receiving them? It's been over a week and I've heard nothing back so far. (HYS median going for NY)
I got two within a week of applying. Crickets otherwise.

Any idea for the Cleary CIP timeline? Just got a callback yesterday, and wonder when the offer/rejection is gonna arrive. Will decisions be released only after July or on a rolling basis? Thanks folks!
All due respect, who does this help? Unless a Cleary recruiting committee member is on this thread (doubt), how is anyone supposed to know Cleary's internal timeline lol

Any updates on general callback --> offer/rejection timeline for DPW? I had mine earlier this week and I see a lot of people on here had been waiting to hear back and I don't see any future updates. Would love to know how long it ended up taking and if anyone has actually gotten a clear rejection yet? Thanks!

Anyone have an idea on Latham callback —> offer timeline?

Also once you reach callback stage is your hard numbers such as GPA still a relevant factor to get to an offer or is based largely on the callback interview performance?

Not sure what market you're in but I had a callback at Latham LA three weeks ago and still haven't heard back. Not feeling that confident about it at this point.

Do we apply to openings even after our school's bid deadline is closed? Does answer change if we bid or did not bid the firm?

Within 1 week. Keep in mind they only interview for honors grades then offer 80-90% of cbs, so if your interview wasn't terrible, you'll likely hear back.
