Job Hunting...

So now that the Bar is over and I have decided not to go back to my old job (mainly because they are moving downtown) I am in the process of finding a new job.

It's tricky because I'm not yet an attorney, but I hopefully will be come May 15, so positions are limited.

Does anyone know of any good firms that are looking for a law clerk/Paralegal? (luckily while I was attending law school I also worked full time as a Paralegal, so I at least have some experience).

TIA :)

Re: Job Hunting...

  • Hey there!  Was wondering if you had taken the exam and how it went.  Hope you kicked some serious exam-arse!  I don't know of any firms, but are there recruiting companies, similar to those for acctg/CPAs?  Good luck!  I wish you the best!  Keep me posted, k?  You have my email right.  :-)
  • I used to work in firms in LA and lately, I have not been hearing good news.  A lot of attorneys are applying for paralegal jobs bc there arent any opps. 

    Try Craigslist, MaturaFarrington.com, and try going directly to the firm website.  I amnot really big into headhunters bc I feel like they are carsalesmen and dont really care where I am placed as long as they get paid.  Good luck to you!

  • I'm crossing my fingers for your results!  Yes

    It's tough out there these days, but if you're looking for a paralegal job, I'd hunt around on Craig's List and be willing to drive a bit for the right position.  There are tons of postings on there.  I agree with PP, the headhunters may not be worth your time.  Good luck and let us know when you land something.
