[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aquagirl = the Clearly Goatlips Cleary Gottlieb summer associate who stripped down to her underwear and dove into the Hudson River. At a summer associate event. At night. Had to be rescued.[/quote] And Aquagirl got an offer.[/quote] She got a cold offer from Cleary if i remember right.[/quote] What’s a cold offer?[/quote] Historically law students tracked what percentage of summer associates from a firm did/not receive an offer for a job after law school as a good metric of whether to apply to that firm. To avoid looking bad to the next crop of applicants, firms would “cold offer” summers they didn’t like, essentially saying “you can come back but we really don’t want you to.” That way the firm could say they gave 100% of the class offers, but signal to certain people they should really find a different job.
