Members of the class of 2012 were put on notice. They're retarded for going to law school despite seeing a huge number of students in the class of 2009 get their offers revoked or start dates delayed, and despite seeing members of the classes of 2010 and 2011 get ZERO OCI offers. No one in the class of 2012 will get a job because of the clogged pipeline of law graduates already fighting to get biglaw jobs from the depths of PUBLIC INTEREST hell. Even people at HYS are getting shut out of the job market. People at Michigan will have to be in the top 10% of their class and on LR to get any CBs. Drop out now before you've thrown your money and life away!

When this OCI turns out to be the worst in history, this thread will bear record of my brilliance.

OP mistakenly assumes that legal employers will take unemployed law graduates over current law students. All else held equal, they will definitely take the people who haven't yet proven themselves unemployable in the real world.

also firms want to keep (what's left of) those connections with elite law schools. so I imagine they're going to give preference to students fresh out of law school (sucks to be someone that's out in the cold, though)

I think there was a pretty recent event where several top law schools almost banned some V10/V20 firms from participating in EIW. If you piss off enough of the best schools, you get to pick from shit. One firm (no matter who you are) isn't enough to dictate how law schools operate, especially when law schools don't have much if anything to lose (applicants will keep coming) whereas law firms can be banned from EIWs.

If the crooks can get more employers there, even if they don't hire anyone, students will feel like they had a chance. They will feel like they had a chance and they just messed up, and the school can avoid being called out as a fraudulent rip-off.

this is stupid. most firms are doing much better than a year or two ago. They have seriously cut recruiting the last two summers and many firms have also laid off junior associates. At most places, firms are actually feeling pinched for more junior associates and will need to soon start compensating for their overcontraction at the junior level over the last two years. Given the length of the recruiting pipeline, I expect this correction so start modestly with this year's OCI.

cr. i know of lathameds who've been hired by biglaw or midlaw over the past 6 months and i know unemployed 09 grads who found decent midlaw jobs just recently. especially with in house counsel not wanting to waste money on untrained first years the current jobless and others who are looking to trade up are going to be a real problem for the class of 2012. the same thing happened after the early 90s recession which was less severe, so this time it should be much worse.

and to think, if these people had just delayed law school a few years their prospects would be much better. it's probably for the best that good firms won't be hiring this class of students with poor judgment.

oh yah that's right. as biglaw salaries went up schools raised tuition to absurd new levels. my old law school is significantly more expensive now than when i went, and much more of the class was getting biglaw back then.

the class of 2012 is basically made up of the worst of the law school applicant pool. the smart people either deferred enrollment or are waiting to apply. firms should avoid the class of 2012 like the plague.

THE CRAVATH SYSTEM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cravath_System

Swaine lays out the fundamentals of the Cravath System in the beginning of Volume 2 of the history of the Cravath Firm.[3]

"Recruiting the staff"

Paul Drennan Cravath preferred to hire the "best of the best" and looked to the better law schools for candidates. Graduates were expected to be members of Phi Beta Kappa and have served as editors for the school law reviews. A graduate from a university outside the top 5 was expected to be at least the equivalent of a "B" student at Harvard.

Only new graduates were to be hired, except in extenuating circumstances. The belief was that someone who had worked anywhere else had learned bad habits already.

My mistake. I thought your post was supposed to be responsive to the "give me a good reason you chose to attend law school" prompt. Obviously the fact that 10% or even 25% of the class is almost guaranteed biglaw is not a reasonable justification for dropping $180k on law school.

At my T20±5 CDO's recent OCI presentation: "This year's OCI is going to have firm attendance similar to last year's."

All of my classmates began looking at each other in horror with a dash of killself. After the disheartening presentation, I passed by a group of unemployed girls discussing their full-proof strategy of calling every law firm in the phonebook in hoaps of finding a legal job this summer. Sadly, their futile efforts are too little too late.

*Shrug* No bitterness for me - I actually think I'll be fine. But I lulz when I see law students talk about how the problems of prior classes don't affect them and they'll be living in 2006 or some nonsense. IRL, it is a business and that's all it is. Law firms don't hire you because they care about you, your loans or anything else. If there are a ton of unemployed lawyers around and no work to be done you're not getting brought on board. Period. Basically, we're already seeing the same people who said "oh, it'll all blow over by the time I need a job" getting pwn3d. But sure, you're right, you'll be fine this year.

i work at a firm. our hiring is up. most firms are increasing hiring this season. the firms say so, the schools say so. not sure why you feel the need to argue here.

I'm just pointing out that hiring was better in 2008 because everything was supposed to blow over. What happened to all those guys?

I contacted them recently. They told me when they think I should start mass mailing, where to find the alum list for networking, etc. I have a password to the job board. But that really is about it. They have so many students they need to worry about that alums are barely on their radar, I think. Also, the days of them pulling favors and hooking you up are long over.

truthfully, though, even for current students, what the hell do these people do?

Your OCS struck me as nice enough but they're all ultimately helpless

I haven't talked to DD, I talked to BC. But yeah, I think that is right. I'm sure they would help if they could, but I don't see what they can do except point me what in their opinion is the right direction.

How is OCI coming?

Reading an Apple Weblog for economic info is like using Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps for toothpaste. You can do it, but why?

I was just googling for a couple of links illustrating my point. I don't regularly read these sources.
