I'm doing this a firm at a time. I might get bored with it. I might include something like percentages if I feel like it. I don't care if I made mistakes and the numbers don't add up, it's close enough. Spare me your complaints about the data, about how some have faster partnership tracks than others, about school size.

Why would you do this?

You know what people are gonna say.

(1) Chicago is a 2nd tier city

(2) NWLaw places well precisely because it is in Chicago

(3) U of C kids are better than NWLaw kids

(4) U of C kids go to other places like NYC more frequently than NWLaw kids

(5) LOL at Loyola getting pwned by schools in its own backyard.

recent statistics dont really bear this out lol.

but it IS funny how chicago trolls create new destinations every time a single placement stat pwns them.

"they suck in chicago placement"->"that's because they're all gonig to nyc!"

"they suck in nyc placement"->"thats because they're all going to DC"

and my favorite:

"they suck in DC placement"->"thats because they're all going to texas!"

lolololol

They place no one outside of Chicago. They are usually around ND, Emory and WUSTL for percentage of class placed in NLJ250 firms (usually T25 in the country), but behind schools liek GW, BC, BU, Fordham.

What is interesting is that my hypotheses on what kind of people these firms like were almost totally spot on according to these numbers.

Kirkland: wants top students that are also more self starters/confident, would probably dip into state schools a bit more than others to find it.

Sidley: wants top students and REALLY wants top schools, probably even moreso than the rest. i get the sense that LR is less consequential there and they also want some polish/professionalism.

Mayer: really wants tippity top students more than anything. Mayer seems to be a place where magna + law review is going to get you in the door regardless of personality. Seems to be more okay with taking the top students from Loyola, etc. than the others.

Winston: definitely wants fratters more than the others, seems a heck of a lot more slanted towards personality which it finds in greater supply at state schools. Loves Michigan. Likes Illinois/Indiana/OSU/Notre Dame.

Jenner: top schools are the key no matter what. I have always thought that they tend to favor women these days but I could be totally wrong.

Latham: no idea. other offices stress personality, really no idea re: Chicago.

Jones Day: wants one of the following- Notre Dame and/or Notre Dame.

Bartlit Beck: Two sport Olympians preferred, will settle for SCOTUS clerks or tenured professors. Ideally, a candidate will be all three.
