The Law School Toolbox Podcast: Tools for Law Students from 1L to the Bar Exam, and Beyond 404: Staying in Your Lane in the Job Hunt (w/Sadie Jones)
Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're excited to talk to ex-BigLaw recruiter Sadie Jones about developing your plan for the job hunt process and sticking to it, without focusing on the things you can't control.
In this episode we discuss:
- Some of the things that job seekers worry about when they shouldn't
- What should you be focusing on (rather than obsessing over what other people are doing)?
- Thinking about what you really want job-wise and how to go about achieving it
- Why gossip and rumors are not advisable in the law school/law firm world
- How to regroup if you've been searching for a while and not getting the results you want
