For those following Los Angeles, they are finally proceeding with final round interviews after putting the applicants on hold for over a year. I got an email yesterday.

If anyone wants to get a group chat going (on whatever platform) for incoming Cook County ASAs, PM me. Or if one already exists I would appreciate an invite haha.

Any update from the final round of LA interviews? Trying to gauge whether LADA will be hiring this winter. . .

I'm the anon from above. About two weeks after the interview, I got another email that said something like the county is still on a hiring freeze and they can't proceed until they've been granted an "exemption" (basically the same thing they've been telling us for over a year now). I'm not sure why they even bothered to call us back for interviews only to tell us they still can't hire anyone.

That’s so messed up. Sorry to hear that, and hopefully you hear something soon!

Checking in - did they ever give any more updates?

What was your final round for Suffolk like? Was it a fit interview or did you get hypos as well?

Anyone get an offer or rejection from Suffolk (NY)? I had my final round before the holidays and I have been told that my application is still pending! So so stressed.

Also, does Brooklyn just not send out rejections? I have literally heard nothing since I applied in Sept. and any emails I've sent haven't received any replies. That was my top choice.

PS, those curious about LA: back in May they were hit with a hiring freeze and they said it would likely last 2 years (similarly to other LA county offices). I checked in again in December and they said the freeze was still in effect for fall 2021 positions (and they do their hiring starting in Jan anyway- no fall class hiring occurs). They do still have unpaid internships if you wind up unemployed and want the experience, not sure how it changes things to be a post bar law clerk though. It used to be that you would be paid as a post bar and then get hired and that was the best way to get hired fresh out of law school.
