Anyone else get a cryptic email from Bryan Cave saying that they'll get back to you once they've made their final decisions? What does it mean?

Sounds like you are on hold, unless the firm makes decisions once callbacks are completed. You are still in the game as KD would say

Not at Bryan Cave but firms 100% use wait lists (I know mine does). Some don’t communicate that and some do. If they haven’t affirmatively dinged you, they are either still making a decision or they’ve put you on a wait list.

Can you share how many people your firm pulls from the waitlist? BCLP is close to the top of my list but other deadlines are coming up. Worth reaching out to let them know?

Anyone w a Hogan DC CB have any movement?

I don’t have exact numbers (doubt recruiting would share that with me), but we give offers on a rolling basis. We probably have a hold for each offer we do make toward the start. Once numbers size up I’d imagine that dips since we’ll have a better idea of our yield by the later weeks. From experience, I was likely on a waitlist at my firm when I went through OGI/callbacks. Didn’t hear from them for 2 weeks after the CB when they are known (firmwide) for next-day / same week offers (also know that a classmate turned them down and I was offered later that week).

If you have deadlines coming up (e.g, within the next few days, not weeks) it probably can’t hurt if you do it properly and if enough time has passed since your CB. If they know you have to decide on other firms first, they might move a little quicker but at some firms each potential summer offer needs to be approved by the hiring committee which may only meet once a week. Do not tell them they are your number one pick unless you are ready to accept on the spot if they give you an offer.
