Screener in NYC or DC?

Post by Anonymous User » Tue Jul 17, 2018 3:18 am

Stats: go to a school between T30-40, finished 1L in the top quarter. I know...not great, but I have some interesting work experience that has snagged me a few BigLaw interviews.

W&C recruiter reached out to me because I applied to both NYC and DC offices, asking which office I'd want to do my screener at.

I honestly would be fine with both cities, and the few main practice areas I'm interested in are available in both cities, though I know W&C doesn't do much corporate work in the DC office.

So in this case, do you all think it's a better idea for me to do the screener in NYC? I'm leaning towards NYC because I think I'd have better chances of getting a callback.

Definitely NYC, the office is twice the size and in a much less competitive market.
