I'm in a similar situation but haven't received any updates post-interviewAnonymous User wrote:This is all so strange.

All I gather from reading all of these over the past few months is that Fried Franks doesn't deserve your time or your worry. This type of inconsideration and inconsistency is indicative of firm culture, the partners are obviously just not that into you, so do you really wanna climb aboard that stinking ship? Do yourselves a favor: send them an email and tell them to take their indecisiveness and stick it where it belongs.

Can't answer that, but it would seem emails went out in the last week or two.Anonymous User wrote:Any idea when they started scheduling interviews? ThanksAnonymous User wrote:Have heard Wheeler Trigg O now scheduling interviews.

To folks that have applied to Williams & Connolly: After you applied using their website portal, did you get a confirmation email? I applied a week ago, but I haven't received an email confirming receipt (which I did for Orrick and WH). I wanted to email to ask, but I also didn't want to be annoying either. Thanks!

As someone that has been rejected from Williams & Connolly, I did not receive a confirmation email. Best of luck to you

Did anyone else get spammed with rejections from K&L Gates last night? I received six back to back emails.

I emailed around November (LA office) and got an offer to interview after about two weeks later.Anonymous User wrote:I'm in the same boat as you. I'd be worried but... they have sent out dings via snail-mail to some people. I suppose that either means they are still considering us, or forgotten about us completely. Who knows, maybe we'll get an interview !Anonymous User wrote:I still haven’t heard back from Susman after applying just before Thanksgiving. So even a generic email would be better than this.
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
