You’re Hired! Job Hunting Advice For Law Students and Young Lawyers
Why Write this Book?
COVID-19 has turned a strong legal job market into a weak one. For some, it always has been a tough job market. As a managing partner of a boutique litigation firm in Miami, Florida, I receive countless resumes, and on LinkedIn
I answer many questions about landing a job. I witness job seeking mistakes over and over and misunderstandings about what employers want, what grabs their attention and what turns them off. There are both little and big things
law students and young lawyers can do to drastically improve their chances of getting noticed and getting an offer. It isn’t complicated. It isn’t mysterious. But yes, it will take time and work. But if you put in the time and effort, you will increase the odds of being hired. This book will show you how.
