small/midlaw firm - no t14 students on our radar
Poast new message in this thread
Date: August 31st, 2010 10:54 PM Author: floppy corner its a small firm (30) in a small state. Still amazing to me - given that we get an awesome variety of work and very real partnership prospects - that no one from big schools ever apply anymore. This was much different 20 years ago, apparently. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1411182&forum_id=2#15935223) |

Date: August 31st, 2010 11:03 PM Author: free-loading institution water buffalo so, answer the question. if some desperate T6 kid with shit grades found you, would you even look at him? the perception is that small regional firms tend to be grade snobs and prefer high grades from the local TTT, and that's probably the reason few are seeking you out.

Date: September 1st, 2010 12:21 AM Author: sienna hideous heaven old irish cottage Because there are quite a few $120, 135, 145, or 160k jobs out there that can be found using the kind of initiative and searching that would be required to find your firm. And many of them would LOVE to bring in a t14 student.
I have a "callback" interview with a firm in a good market that actually pays a bit above market that told me point blank "we didn't get any other applications from your school and we really want to add someone from there."
If you want an example of what I'm talking about, look up Belin McCormick. OK, they're in Des Moines, but they pay what? $145k? Belin isn't as anonymous as some other firms out there, but similar firms exist.
If you raise it, they will come.

Date: September 1st, 2010 12:29 AM Author: sienna hideous heaven old irish cottage Belin was an example of the type of firm I'm talking about, not the firm at which I'm doing a CB.
I just did a crapton of research outside of OCI because I was terrified of ITE and have a list of market firms that I could land a job at if OCI stuff fell through. |

Date: September 1st, 2010 12:33 AM Author: cream stimulating set Humm. I bet we could work up an xoxo master list but my experience is that smaller good firms are not taking summers either because they rarely have in the past or they hire exclusively laterals (often only currently employed laterals).

Date: September 1st, 2010 1:04 AM Author: sienna hideous heaven old irish cottage I can't reveal all of the secret firms until I secure myself a job, clearly.
Just tossing the name of a little known firm out there that'd be worth shooting a resume to as a t14 student.

Date: September 1st, 2010 1:15 AM Author: cream stimulating set I don't think they are hiring anyone who would not get hired and have lots o options through oci. I can think of firms that might take a below median t14 student, but not without some reason to be in their market and the concept that your typical ID sweatshop that pays 80k would want a bottom have gulc or Cornell student over a local t2 with good grades is pretty far out.
