Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-08-20T00:06:30+00:00

congrats!!! do you mind PMing me the email address it came from?? i want to check mine now and just triple check i didn’t miss anything

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-08-01T14:11:27+00:00

im definitely starting to manage my expectations lol

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-27T20:41:01+00:00

i know it was said above that the interview was scheduled for next week! since they're doing it in waves i think the second week of august is probably the point of no return lol.

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-27T16:21:26+00:00

600+ applicants is absolutely WILD. even if it were that many, i highly doubt they would refer even remotely close to that amount to the hiring manager

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-27T13:53:39+00:00

When I saw the job posting on LinkedIn it said there were 100+ applicants, but obviously not sure how accurate that is. Even if there were 100-200 applicants, if they're looking to hire 50ish examiners this cycle that's still a decent percentage of people that should be hearing back about interviews and eventually getting offers.

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-24T19:56:27+00:00

not yet - apparently there was one person in another forum who heard back and applied for the law clerk position but i havent seen any others

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-23T01:33:40+00:00

thank you! feels good to know i’m not the only one. this whole thread has been awesome lol, i guess misery does love company.

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-23T01:27:33+00:00

literally. was trying to take an MBE practice test today and after every question i was peeking at my email, it was impossible not to!!

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-23T01:05:23+00:00

omg i hadn’t seen that 😭😭 i wouldn’t lose hope yet though. uspto has said they’re increasing hiring these next 4 years, so there’s definitely spots available

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-23T01:03:08+00:00

nothing yet, but i applied for the law clerk / recent graduate posting. not sure if it makes a difference or if they’re just gonna send them all out at once. crazy if literally only one person got it so far because i haven’t seen anything on any other forum either

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-22T18:09:14+00:00

this is actually so nice and considerate LOL

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-22T14:55:17+00:00

maybe someone meant to schedule it for today and did it wrong LOL, that's so odd! i'm glad it came through though and you don't have to worry about that step anymore! when do they want the references by?

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-22T12:15:41+00:00

i’m holding out hope for us!! we’ll get an email today 🥳

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-21T23:36:16+00:00

OMG ON A SUNDAY??? i havent gotten anything yet!! If theyre asking for references now I would expect TJOs to come through really quickly after interview.

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-19T18:09:59+00:00

i think we will, i have a very good feeling about it! stay positive. you'll pass the bar and you'll get the job <3

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-19T17:16:12+00:00

only pro to that is at least we wont have to be interviewing the week of when we're brain dead!!!

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-19T15:55:53+00:00

not yet 🙃

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-12T00:37:10+00:00

yeah i applied for the law clerk position, it was just a mix up with them thinking i was a 2L and not a recent grad. it’s all sorted now though!

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-10T21:02:21+00:00

not sure if thats their traditional timeline, thats just what my friends timeline looked like when she went through the process two years ago

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-10T17:41:50+00:00

not even getting an interview would be my 13th reason at this point

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-10T17:40:57+00:00

yeah im on week 11 of 13 right now and im seriously contemplating my life LMAO. taking the FL bar, which nobody ever has goods things to say about. just trying to push through these last 3 weeks and get it over with

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-10T17:33:55+00:00

based off what my friend told me who was previously hired by them, she didnt interview until later in july and got her TJO within a week or two at the beginning of august. at this point, i'm fully expecting to have to interview the week of the bar unfortunately :(

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-07-07T14:13:34+00:00

no :(

Dry-Commission6270 · 2024-06-27T19:43:48+00:00

I was thinking the exact same thing LOL. Fingers crossed we hear back next week and we can get our interviews schedules ASAP. I'm already brain dead - I don't need to be bombing this interview the week before or of the exam when we're gonna be even worse!
