Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! In this episode, we discuss job search strategies for 1L and 2L students in their second semester. We address key issues such as lack of interview responses or offers, and whether it's worth it to wait for your dream job.
In this episode we discuss:
- How concerned should you be if you're a 1L or 2L and you don't have a summer job yet?
- What to work on at this point to secure a summer job?
- Key issues such as lack of interview responses, offers, and whether to wait for your "dream job"
- How important is LinkedIn in your job search?
