2L Winter (2021) Toronto Recruit PFOs/ITCs

[WesternLaw543 14]

In previous years, a thread like this has proven valuable in allowing students to know where they stand. With OCI's beginning in less than two weeks, we will likely start receiving PFOs/ITCs by end of this week, early next. 

Additionally, state which school you attend as they are often sent out at different times.

Got the ITC email earlier today from Bennett Jones as well. Not Ontario law school, but won’t further specify to remain anonymous.

From the thread, looks like PFOs and ITCs have gone out for UVic and Dal. Are those schools participating in OCIs?

Intent to VCI received from Fasken and Bennett Jones - I go to McGill

[TorontoLaw17 28]

does anyone know whether firms continue to send out ITCs/PFOs on the weekend?

[chrispbacon 50]

Anyone else's hearts practically stopping with each confirmation of application email?

For anyone feeling nervous/disheartened by PFOs, I had nothing but PFOs before the OCI list came out and thought I was screwed. I ended up with a good number of OCIs and a job.

If you don't want to share totally understandable, but were these responses all the same (all PFO, or all ITC) or a variation? Only reason I ask is I have still not heard anything at all.
