slightly random comment, but you might be aware that you search within the thread by clicking search at the top, then choosing "this thread" from the dropdown.

Then you'll get taken to a URL like this:

https://www.thecorporatelawacademy..../?q=skadden&t=post&c[thread]=8976&o=relevance

The &o=relevance means that the forum sorts it in random relevant order.

Anyway, it doesn't appear to be possible to specify date order from the menu, but what you can do is this:

In Chrome enter chrome://settings/searchEngines into the URL bar, then click 'add' under site search, then give it a name and shortcut (can be both the same, I chose tclavs), then the search URL is:


If you want to add one for the TC thread, the URL would be

so then if you type tclavs skadden into the Chrome URL bar, and hit enter, it will directly take you the date-sorted search results for the VS thread, and similarly if you've set up the other as tclatc you can do likewise for the TC thread.

So you're telling us there's a chance....
I think Paul, Weiss may have held an initial batch of interviews and made Spring and/or Summer VS offers from that batch. Perhaps they didn’t fill all their VS slots for the Summer VS from that initial batch, so now they are beginning to interview a new batch of candidates for the Summer VS. To my knowledge, the Spring VS is completely full at the moment. Best of luck to everyone who applied for the Summer VS and waiting to hear back from Paul, Weiss! 🙂​

Why haven't they given me the PFO yet if they already filled their Spring.... 😭
