I’m doing my first ever take home data analysis case study and they asked me to present it. For those who have done these before, how do you present your findings? Is a PowerPoint presentation common, or do you have a word document with the questions/answers and visuals?

Im using tableau to create a dashboard with my findings, should I just present with that?

If a firm thinks you’re the right candidate to make an offer to, do they usually continue interviewing anyway? Confused because I had a great interview and think I’m a great fit but the firm is continuing to interview and will make decisions in the next couple weeks. Is that not a good sign?

I’ve gotten asked how I deal with feedback in two different interviews recently. Anyone have an idea of what a good answer would be? I panicked and said something about paying close attention to redlines and proactively attempting to improve my legal writing but I’m not sure that’s what they’re looking for.

Hey all - first year associate here… I’ve met my hours requirement for this year (requirement is 1900 and am currently at around 2050 with billable hours - approx. 2160 with non billable admin hours) and I am just tired. Is it okay to just “disappear” during the holidays (thanksgiving week, week of Christmas) and let partners and senior associates know I am not available? At this point I don’t care about making more money - I just want to sleep, read a good trashy book, and cuddle with my dog.

Just here to say ... so so grateful for the jewish holidays. if nothing else, they grant me time off without questions or (hopefully) judgment. Needed these few days to reset without email. Shana Tova everyone!

Partner gets upset and calls me to complain every time I don’t turn a draft within 2hrs of receiving an email. This same partner has been sitting on a draft for two weeks. How do I get myself out of this situation? I’m at capacity, working as fast as I can, and they’re stressing me out.

Laterals - did your previous firm milk you until your last day (and expected you to keep doing work until you returned your laptop) or were you rolled off matters and given time to transition? Any tips on getting the firm to back off on the former?
