Jobs

As in the past, some graduates may have to accept positions outside of their field of interest or for which they feel overqualified. Some recent law school graduates who have been unable to find permanent positions are turning to the growing number of temporary staffing firms that place attorneys in short-term jobs. This service allows companies to hire lawyers on an “as-needed” basis and permits beginning lawyers to develop practical skills.

"Lawyers are the only persons in whom ignorance of the law is not punished."
- Jeremy Bentham

    that last quote summarises it perfectly. The system allows the trained man to do what he pleases. Such an interesting point. WOW

    This is similar situation to Doctors coming to the UK from Europe, to work the shifts that UK doctors don't want.

    It would suck to have that much student loan debt, and be unable to find a job.

    Temporary staffing has so many problems with it. But for businesses, it's perfect.

    Looking for a job myself at the moment. I feel almost certain it will be outside my area of expertise.

    The quotes at the ends of these posts are nice by the way.

    I'd be angry spending all that money and not being able to find a job in your field.

    A little humility might be most unexpected in this field, but you gotta do whatcha gotta do.
