Re: 3L Public Defender Applications
Anyone have any idea when NJ and/or Philly is gonna start scheduling interviews and making offers? I have an offer from a similarly-sized office, and I gotta make a call to see whether it's worth turning down and waiting for them.

NJ has already interviewed some people and made offers to at least one I know.

Re: 3L Public Defender Applications
If New Hampshire or Prettyman give out any offers, can you PLEASE post here asap (even if you have to say you know "a friend of a friend" who got it). I think I am losing my damn mind waiting to hear back from these offices.

Re: 3L Public Defender Applications
Just out of curiosity, where did you end up?Anonymous User wrote:I know we have the prosecution/DA gunner thread, but it currently seems swamped with 1Ls and 2Ls looking for summer work. It would be nice if we could keep track of what PD offices have sent out interview notifications/rejections/offers for 3Ls looking for permanent positions. I applied to approximately 20 PD offices and have heard almost nothing from the offices. I have gotten a rejection notification from Bronx Defenders, and I had an initial interview with the Public Defender Service of D.C., but I haven't heard back from them since. Has anyone gotten any rejections or interviews?

I reached out to NH about another offer and they said offers will be out by Jan 4. Reading this thread from last year seems that they made offers earlier via phone. We'll see!

Re: 3L Public Defender Applications
Thanks for the update! I'm hoping they give out offers sooner like they did last year. Reading this thread from last year made this week (the week before Christmas) seem like it was a big offer week for a lot of offices.Anonymous User wrote:Anonymous User wrote:If New Hampshire or Prettyman give out any offers, can you PLEASE post here asap (even if you have to say you know "a friend of a friend" who got it).

Re: 3L Public Defender Applications
So do most places just not reject? I never heard back from CO or BxD. It's just annoying to not even get a form rejection.

Re: 3L Public Defender Applications
I think that everyone who has interviewed at BxD/CO and has not been made an offer has been waitlisted. With their limited resources, I'm sure these offices try to maximize their time by only interviewing qualified candidates. They made their first round picks and are waiting to hear if their offers have been accepted. I think someone who was offered a CO position said s/he had to make a decision by 1/11. I wouldn't expect to hear about more offers from that office until then. Also, a couple questions:
Were people rejected from BxD after the final round interviews?
Can the people who were offered a position at BxD tell the forum when they are supposed to make their decisions by?

They started rejections already. And who's going to ask for time? You accept that!

They started rejecting people who had final round panel interviews? Is that confirmed? and was it by email/snail mail/phone?

Re: 3L Public Defender Applications
So is there an overall consensus that there has been a general silence from Bxd thus far? It seems like only one person here heard definitively and got an offer. Are there any more rejections out there? Trying to hope that no news is good news..

Same. So I had a final round LAS interview a couple of weeks back (no one freak out, Tina said she'd be scheduling final round interviews for a while) and Tina said something to the effect of funding not being finalized for NYC PD offices until around February. A part of me is thinking BxD is waiting for finalization of its funding before it makes more decisions. But who knows? All I know is, the waiting is killing me.
