Bidding has closed. What happens now?

1. Bidding has closed. What happens now?

OCI Session 1 and Off-Campus Recruitment Program employers have begun reviewing student application materials. Once the majority of responses are received, students will be emailed about Symplicity being open to view the interview selections. The “Accept/Decline period” will follow shortly thereafter, during which students will either accept an interview invitation or choose not to. Once students accept an interview invitation, they will be able to schedule their interview with that firm. You will receive notification of interview invitations and employer selections by the week of July 16. Please also be mindful that notifications for other Off-Campus Programs will come from administrators at other coordinating law schools by the end of this week, with instructions on scheduling. 
Please make sure to check your email often during this time, as it is a fast-moving process.

2. What is the “pre-select sign-up” window, and does it matter when in that timeframe I log in to schedule my interviews?

The “Pre-Select Sign-Up” period is when you will be able to schedule your interview(s) with specific employer(s). You will be notified by email that you have been “pre-selected” to interview with a given firm. (For planning purposes, you can view which firm(s) have pre-selected you the day before the scheduling window opens.)  Then, if pre-selected, you will log in during the sign-up period to schedule the date and time of your screening interview. (If you are an “alternate,” you will be notified by email whether you have been added to the employer’s interview schedule after the pre-select sign-up period has closed.)

Because you may be coordinating multiple interviews, it is advantageous to log in early in the pre-select period so you have the best chance of getting the timeslot you want with each employer.
