Anyone hear back from any Boston firms for lit? It doesn't seem that many firms are hiring.

so take a job with a firm i'm not excited for in a specialty that i'm so-so about, or take the gamble and wait until other firms opening up for clerkship hires? it's hard when it seems like the majority of the firms are silent.

I have to assume firms are still trying to feel out the market. I'm waiting on responses from 3 interviews and haven't heard anything (no rejections or interview invites) from 4 of the 7 firms I applied to.

I applied to Gibson LA like three weeks ago and nothing. Bad or good sign?

For Latham, did you go beyond submitting an app (i.e., their online behavioral screening) before the ding?

Question.

If I got a ding to Paul, Weiss, New York City office, but applied also to their SF and DC offices, is that New York ding considered for all offices? OR will i receive a separate ding for each office I applied to?

Jenner is starting to review applications now. Wilmer is still assessing its hiring needs and won't turn to clerk applications for another week or two.
