How I Got a Job

This week, Cynthia Young, paralegal coordinator for Wolff & Samson, PC, in West Orange, NJ, tells LawCrossing how she got her job:

+ Archives
I found the position at Wolff & Samson through a legal recruiter. Interestingly enough, I didn't believe I was qualified for the position as I had no knowledge of public finance work. I decided to interview with the firm, hoping to sell my other assets: organizational skills, dedication to the career, broad legal background, flexibility, etc. I remember interviewing with the partner in charge of the public finance department and hitting it off immediately. Looking back, I was truly fortunate as he was a wonderful teacher who helped me to expand my skills tremendously.
