Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:16 PM Author: comical library regret but don't you have to live in indianapolis?
or do you commute in from chicago? |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:20 PM Author: razzle menage I like it here.
Firms are very suspicious of people applying here who are trying to flee the shitty Chicago legal market. |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:21 PM Author: razzle menage I grew up in southern Indiana and went to undergrad near there. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1412738&forum_id=2#15949798) |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:22 PM Author: histrionic lavender business firm My experience is that no ties = ding. Still true, right? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1412738&forum_id=2#15949804) |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:28 PM Author: razzle menage Well, I just started but from what I've heard this appears to be true. I overheard a couple of people talking about a bunch of apps from people currently in Chicago, and it wasn't favorable. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1412738&forum_id=2#15949860) |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:30 PM Author: histrionic lavender business firm Yeah, I'm in Chicago and would clearly be in that group. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1412738&forum_id=2#15949879) |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:37 PM Author: razzle menage Try making up some connection with Indy. Say you lived there when you were 14 or something. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1412738&forum_id=2#15949939) |
|
Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:51 PM Author: histrionic lavender business firm I just don't really come off as that kind of person. I interviewed at a couple of the firms during 1L and 2L OCI and it was epic fail.
I also have some great IP credentials, but I get the impression that IP in Indy is more life sciences and less CS oriented. Is that right? |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 7:03 PM Author: razzle menage I don't know about that last part. There's a bunch of EEs here, I'm a physics guy. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1412738&forum_id=2#15950173) |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 7:04 PM Author: Fragrant Gas Station Queen Of The Night I think Estrada said he tried sending his resume to firms there and got dinged by everyone. Sounds like HLS wasn't enough to overcome the lack of ties. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1412738&forum_id=2#15950187) |

Date: September 2nd, 2010 6:49 PM Author: odious frum round eye chapel I worked at a Chicago firm that has a very good relationship with an Indianapolis BIGLAW firm (we use them as local counsel on stuff in Indiana). I have personally worked on cases where this was the case.
I thought this gave me an "in", but nope. |
