Seems to be a bit quiet today, wonder if we will have a day soon where we are swarmed with rejections/interview offers?

 

[David Zandt]

Well, Baker & McKenzie really are the McDonald's of the Legal Profession. They have one of the lowest per-partner-profits for large sized firms.

 

[David Zandt]

Clutz, Allens, Minters, Blakes and Mallesons have all started sending they're rejections out. Pity I got rejected from all.

Today? I hate the false sense of security you get when you haven't heard from them yet. Thats sucks David, got any more up your sleeve?

thanks

and David r u serious about all those firms sending out rejections today?

that sucks

 

[Hardenne]

yeahh I thnk its false alarm, don't think that they have all sent their rejections yet.

 

[melsc]

I haven't been offered an interview for any of those either, so stuck in Limbo

 

[David Zandt]

Yeah, Goancrazy, I'm serious. Why would I joke about something like that?

Thats really bad news mate
sorry to hear

I don't know what these firms want then!

Didn't u get freehills? Thats awesome
Don't get why those others don't want u
If freehills accepted u, u'd think you'd be the ideal candidate

I only know 2 ppl from my uni who got freehills!

But then again, one of my friends who got into freehills got rejected by Bakers, and didn't apply to DLA...

No word from any firms today.

 

[David Zandt]

Yeah, Goan, it is bad news. There's no way I'll get Freehills. Imagine the level of competition at the interview stage!!! I've heard you need at least 3-4 interviews- that is, from different firms - to get an offer. I also did get rejected from DLA.

[David Zandt]

Watchell, Lipton, Rosen, and Katz

 

[Simpson Freak]

Watchell, Lipton, Rosen, and Katz

[Simpson Freak]
