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.

Tom Jacob: 2L at Baylor Law School
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.
