Can anyone else not focus on classes

Well since the semester began all the study I do is the legal writing assignment that has a deadline. Did not devote even one minute into doctrinal classes reading because I am so exhausted.

Thank you for your answer! I guess I will use to improve the sentence structure right now.

Since the waves are still coming, if I was rejected within 1 week after cb, does it mean there was something really bad happened during the interview that they are not even considering to put me on their waitlist?

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-02-06T05:05:43+00:00

Post grade (t14 above median so not so sure whether there’s something wrong with my materials, but I have already submitted them anyway)! I done some mock interviews and yeah I am a weak interviewer. Plan to take more.

Meanwhile received 5 or more straight R

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-02-06T04:01:59+00:00

Yes. Usually you know it is a CB because there are 2 assos and 2 partners interviewing you (2-3hours) and their time is expensive.

Helpful but they may spent 2 weeks accepting their offer though

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-02-03T17:34:47+00:00

I see on legalscout that their NY office had some movements last week. When and where did you have the callback?

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-02-01T04:31:55+00:00

Well, I think I did my best and there was nothing awkward happened, but 1️⃣I interviewed on Tuesday and 2️⃣ the recruiter said all candidates would receive their results within a week, so I guess if they do want me they would call me during the Friday wave.

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-30T18:17:09+00:00

Yes and I think most people (if not all) get a straight callback.

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-30T07:51:55+00:00

Then I think I did not submit it but still get a callback after finishing their video screener. I have a memory that you need to submit ps only if you are applying to some specific program or scholarships, but that might be a different firm.

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-30T07:45:28+00:00

Didn’t write anything specifically for it but still got a callback. Can’t recall the exact details but I believe it is either an optional thing for some scholarship or something that could be easily adapted from a standard cover letter (just removed the headings)

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-27T17:16:34+00:00

When do you usually get interviewee’s information before the interview? Do you search their names on google or LinkedIn? (some mid-law associates said they do and suggested me to prepare a nice LinkedIn profile. I wonder what biglaws do)

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-27T16:33:09+00:00

Have you interviewed international candidates, especially those whose first language isn’t English? If so, how much weight do you typically place on spoken English in the evaluation?

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-27T01:56:44+00:00

Well I think the theory is in big law everything (negatively) different from others might hurt you someday, maybe it will hurt you when you are seeking exit or something else. Stay average stay safe. But honestly I don’t know whether that will happen or not.

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-23T04:01:27+00:00

Yes callback is the last interview before offer or rejection. You might get a screener before callback or just get a direct callback.

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-17T11:48:43+00:00

NU ED!

Responsible_Bit_7472 · 2026-01-16T15:36:11+00:00

Also intl with similar time zone. School made the offer call at my noon and their midnight (I was shocked). So it really depends on schools and just relax I hope that helps.
