What I do
Biglaw interview coaching
At the end of the biglaw job search process, know that you gave interviews your best shot. You can’t change your grades or your undergrad or your work experience, but you can change how you interview.
Think about it: Why do law students spend so much time prepping for cold calls and so little time prepping for interviews?
With a $225,000 starting salary on the line, shouldn’t you take action to give yourself better odds at securing a job offer that will help you pay back your loans? Start thinking long-term.
