How to Get Hired Where There Is Not Even an Opening
Harrison Barnes | Dated: 07-29-2010
For some reason, almost every week (sometimes more than once a week) venture capitalists and private equity companies call me to talk about the various businesses I am involved in. I used to talk to them quite formally, the way average people like me talk to doctors, lawyers and bankers. I assumed (wrongly so), that [...] Related posts:

New law graduates and realistic salaries
A.S. Pradhan
The National Association for Law Placement (NALP) last week released a released a report in which it emphasized once again the difference between the starting average salary and the salary amount that most new graduates get paid. It noted that the average goes up because some firms do offer $160,000 per year to their new employees, but several of them pay in the range of $40,000 to $50,000. There is plenty of evidence that most law jobs do not pay in six figures, at least when straight out of...

''The law is one of the few areas where you are always learning something new.''By Douglas May
''You're always learning something new. I think that's what I enjoy about the law in general. For example, I had a professor who liked to joke that at one point in his legal career he was the foremost expert in the process of freezing shrimp for transportation. He had to learn a lot about it for a case he worked on. That's the best part of the law - to be a good advocate, you have to know the subject matter of the case you're working on. That means learning something new for each case.
