Cleary Pre-OCI offer Forum

[Anonymous User]

Cleary gives 2 weeks to accept pre-OCI offers. Has anyone had any luck asking for an extension? I have a few screeners down the line with firms I may be more interested in, but the 2-week timing is almost certainly too tight. Any thoughts?

Sorry, I don't have an answer, but would you mind sharing how much time passed between your callback and offer? Also, is this the NY office or elsewhere? (And congrats!!)

Latham and SulCrom have routinely given extensions to offerees this cycle. May want to leverage that if you have those offers too.

I received an offer in the first week of July and asked for an extension until 2 weeks after my school's OCI (the third week of August). They agreed without any hesitation.

2 days! I believe they have their hiring meetings on Friday, and they had told me they would get back to me either on friday or very shortly thereafter.
