Gotta be 2,200 plus, but including diversity shit. Even if you are just diversity window dressing on Solar City, etc. they need you to manage junior associates.

Partners there work a shitload. I worked with Clary and Sandra Goldstein when she was there. Both worked like animals. Sandra probably bills over 3K a year every year.

Nearly all of Cravath's business is institutional clients. So, as a litigator, relatively little. Most of the business comes from corporate clients who end up in litigation later. It is more important to be liked by the partnership and reliable/smart. Also they have been desperate for females and minorities in the past 5 years. (They had all female partnership classes in 2016 and 2018 and just made two black female partners including this one.) It was embarrassing the the firm had zero black equity partners.

I also would add that the firm needs to try super fucking hard to retain these black women. Cravath basically never hires laterals and the pool of V10 black female equity partners is probably 20 people in the US, if that. If these women leave, they will have to start all over at square one with some midlevel associate who may or may not work out. These women can do whatever the fuck they want and no one can say shit to them.

No. Kirkland paid Sandra Goldstein like $11M per year for 5 years to leave. She said when she left she didn’t leave for money and I believe it. (She had been head of litigation at Cravath.)

She had honors at Columbia. Looks like no honors at NYU but must’ve been solid enough because Patterson gave her a clerkship, and he didn’t hand out clerkships. I’m 100% sure her race helped her life outcome, but i think her stats are in line with who gets job offers at Cravath.

Without Patterson, she doesn’t crack V20. Without black skin, she doesn’t crack Patterson.

It’s fine. She’s smart, probably smarter than me. But making partner at Cravath is difficult as fuck when you have to earn it against whites/Asians. I know that when John Xi makes partner there, he’s fucking brilliant and a hustler. You just know that when it’s a black person the rules and expectations aren’t the same. If the world doesn’t want me to assume that black doctors/lawyers/etc aren’t equals, then they’ll need to stop promoting them unequally.

Did she summer at cravath (which would be before the Patterson interview at that time because the clerkship hiring plan was still generally followed)?

I think if anything AA helped get her the law review position and the Cravath summer, which got her Patterson, which all combined got her the sweet DOJ gig, which then all combined got her partner. I definitely think AA helped plenty. But if she was a white guy she’d be doing well. Either of counsel or junior partner at some firm in the v50.

so she was not in the top 25% of her law school class. who knows how bad her grades are, but even if she was just outside the top 25%, she'd never get a cravath callback as a white male

is xo 2021 too stupid to ferret AA credentials?

this is the classic AA path. AA into nyu law, AA onto nyu LR, AA into EIC of the nyu LR

every single one of her prestigious credentials is gained by AA at every damn level. there's nothing in her resume to indicate she actually was a superstar -- or even excelled -- at anything.

What was the stat when we were in college? Like five black people per year crack 1500 on the SAT? When you spread that kind of intelligence thinly over all the top professions, it makes sense that Cravath never found someone good enough to be partner.

that's why AA is such BS. 95% of the beneficiaries for university admissions are rich immigrants, not inner city descendants of slaves. and, despite these kids privileged backgrounds, they still are well below poor white kids.
