Looking/ hoping for any leads for job. No one is ready to hire a fresher. How can somebody get experience if nop one is ready to train a fresher? Looking for any leads as to anybody who might be hiring.
Practice area would be something like Labour and Employment/ corporate? Have lit experience by interning throughout law school and post graduation as well. Would want to switch and settle into the above practice areas then. Any help possible?
Find an assessment internship. Keep your expectations low. You will eventually plug the gap.
Forget dreams of acing reputed law firms and in-house department. Just get your foot in the door once and then you can optimize your situation.
Get an unpaid internship. If that doesn't work, get another unpaid internship. Sooner or later - you will get picked up, maybe for a paid internship, and then voila, it's a job and then with two or three shifts (5-10 years), you will bring your compensation to industry standards.
Subject: Late law school job crisis: Zero contacts after costly education, huge loan, no job
Dear LI community,
I am a fourth-year law student about to on the verge of commencing my fifth year. When I am done I shall be graduating from an extraordinarily costly private institution that I absolutely loathe now. I have no contacts. I have a huge student loan hanging over my head and would do anything to get a job. I have never had an opportunity and if I ever got one, there were no vacancies.
Is there anyplace with vacancies where I could possibly do an assessment internship? I promise if you provide any leads, I’ll work my ass off. I won’t go home if needed. I know there are others like me, your insights will help them as well.
