The New York Law Journal published a special report yesterday on law schools that has a lot of good information for current law students, including articles such as:
- Career Prospects in a Difficult Economy discusses how to make the best of the changing job market. Look for the quotation by Dean Schwab on page 3 of the article.
- Alternative Jobs. Probably several people have told you that you can do many things with a J.D., but what exactly are those “things” (besides practicing law, of course)? This article provides some answers to that question.
- How High is Your E.I.? (i.e., Emotional Intelligence) There’s a lot more to being a good lawyer than the ability to understand the U.C.C. Having a high emotional intelligence makes you not only more employable but also more successful after you get the job.
Anyone can view the special report for free by signing up for the digital edition with a name and email address.
