Cornell 2018 AJF
Posted: Tue Jun 19, 2018 4:34 pm
This is where you can discuss all things related to the job hunt: bidding, number of screener interviews, success with mass mailing, etc. This also includes discussion of pre-OCI interviews since they have become much more common. Use the anon feature if you want to discuss sensitive information (such as your own GPA range) without having anybody figure out who you are from your regular username. Elder Cornellians will (hopefully) check in to give advice. You can post your bidlists here and receive feedback, or you can PM those who volunteer to review them. Pros of posting them publicly are that anyone can jump in and help + respond to each other; cons are that there's a chance other students may steal your ideas or arrange their bid list if they see trends in how firms are being ranked. That's up to you. But whatever you do, I highly recommend that you run your bidlist by someone who has been through AJF recently and not to rely solely on career services.
When AJF begins, you can use the anon feature to report any callbacks, offers and rejections you get so that other neurotic folks can know what to expect and freak out accordingly. And when you report a CB, note that including the initials of the screener you had can be helpful; different screeners for the same firm may make decisions at different times.
All firms participating in AJF are listed below with the offices they are interviewing for in parenthesis. There are some repeats with firms to indicate that there are more than one ranking slot for these firms. Typically firms that have separate interview slots (i.e. Latham) have separate recruiters for those offices and typically lead to better outcomes than firms that are listed with several cities but only one slot (i.e. Foley Lardner) because the recruiters that come tend to be from the NY office in these cases and have less influence in other offices.
