They had their in-person interviews last month and gave a few offers ~3 weeks ago so I would not hold out hope. =/Anonymous User wrote:MOFO SF. Did a screener interview. No update by email.

Has anyone heard from them recently? I'm assuming they're just wrapping up everything at this point with people they've already interviewed.Anonymous User wrote:They had their in-person interviews last month and gave a few offers ~3 weeks ago so I would not hold out hope. =/Anonymous User wrote:MOFO SF.

Can you tell us school or tier and whether they are accepting?

Not OP but waiting +1. I cb-ed with NY - its been a while. Last year Kirkland took 3 from HLS - not sure if they are going to stick with HYS this year as well...Anonymous User wrote:I'm waiting, are you?Anonymous User wrote:I also got a ding today lmfao...Is anyone still waiting on Kirkland 1L LCLD?

Not OP (x2) - was told decisions will be made this week, but I believe that was for non LCLD positions.Anonymous User wrote:LOL oh did you get any info about turnaround/timelines?Anonymous User wrote:Not OP but waiting +1.

How do you know this?Anonymous User wrote:Heard all Latham offers have gone out. I haven't received a formal ding yet but pretty sure it's coming. Still worth it to go to their diversity weekend if I'm not working for them this summer and don't really want to as a 2L?
I know someone who got a request for a phone interview from them today so not sure if this is trueAnonymous User wrote:Heard all Latham offers have gone out.

Yes. It’s all expenses paid and a great networking opportunity. You never know who you will meet that could help you reach your goals, even if at another firm.Anonymous User wrote:Heard all Latham offers have gone out.

Sorry to hear, though it's such a shitshow for these diversity programs. Much less about merit and much more about whether you're the right type of "diversity" they're looking for. They've literally got boxes to check off, rank stack candidates for each of those boxes, and go on to the next "diversity type fit" candidate on the list if one turns them down. So it's all bullshit really and dings do not reflect your inherent ability. Honestly, now that I know how law firms hire, if I were hiring law firms I would look carefully at their junior associates to make sure they're worth they're billable hours.Gamble2 wrote:I got my shit rocked with ding after ding.
