I've gotten like five solid interviews in the last month. One has already rejected me. Two have not told me anything yet, but at best I'll get a call back for an interview with the GC or higher level person.

And I have two more ints in the next week.

I suck at life in general so it's possible I will blow ALL five of these interviews. Is that pathetic, even in this economy?

WTF would you call someone BACK in after dinging them only to ding them again? alright, if i wasn't good enough the first time, they know that. no need to bring me back in. if they want to bring other people in for the second job and compare to my first set of interviews, that'd be fine too. but this shit was just goddamn ridiculous.

I don't want to get your hopes up, but my only offer consisted of a 2-month process. I had to meet every single person in the department, but the partners would periodically call me if I had any questions. I felt like asking (after the third round of interviews): "Yea, do I have an offer?" I went through the whole pony show for another 3 weeks before receiving an offer.

When I was in BIGLAW I had this inhouse place where I sent my resume, didnt get called for three months. Then I literally had a phone interview with the inhouse guy, a second phone interview more indepth, then I think a third phone interview, then a inperson interview with two more ppl, then anotehr interview with teh GC of the company.. this took over 3 months and then...

they rejected my ass. hired a blond with less expereince.

1 offer for 5 interviews would be a very good ratio.

it pisses me off the most when you interview and then never hear from them again. I've had this happen even on second/third round interviews where they have you meet the entire dept and do all kinds of other stupid crap and they still won't bother to take 15 seconds to type an email and tell you that you didn't get it.

OCI is diff. If you have good grades its pretty common to get more than 10 offers. Also, if your a good looking girl you get offers left and right.

I wish getting a job post OCI was like OCI.
