Biglaw Blind Item: An Ice-Cold Offer
Now that Labor Day is behind us, fall is fast approaching. You can tell by the chill in the evening air. Or is that just the cold offers we're feeling? We recently heard a story about a pretty cold offer. This summer associate, who wasn't the most popular person in her class, received a full-time employment offer "contingent upon obtaining a federal clerkship." Given how hard it is to land a federal judicial clerkship, that's a pretty cold offer. But wait, it gets better.... -

Career Center: The Mysterious Summer Offer Rate
So how do firms decide how many summer associates will get permanent offers? Why do some firms have high offer rates, while others tread closer to the 50% offer range? The law firm recruiting process is very similar to the rush process of fraternities and sororities. There are a ton of drinking and “rush events” […] -

Accept Your Offers Part 7: White & Case v. Nervous T-10 1L?
We’ve reported that firms with “oversubscribed” summer classes are calling up 2Ls and encouraging them to not accept their 2009 summer associate offers. Unlike Akin Gump’s move, the tactic is a clever dodge around the NALP guidelines. As we understand it, firms are not committing these “cold offers” to email, instead using the telephone and […] -
