Applied to BigLaw thru partner who sent my app materials to recruiting. Chances?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: January 11th, 2018 7:49 AM Author: Blue set feces Chances of getting a callback after cold emailing partner who subsequently brought me to lunch with himself and another partner? Partner I emailed is very senior, chair of his group. He sent my app materials to the firm's attorney recruiting staff. Resume is solid, though I've never done BigLaw (govt enforcement for past year). GPA is below cut-off mark, FWIW. No relevant openings posted on their site. Non NYC/DC/Chicago/LA; one of Pittsburgh/Detroit/MSPL (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3856076&forum_id=2#35131136) |
