LAW SCHOOL GRADUATES HAVING TROUBLE FINDING WORK
March 12, 2012
LawCrossing.com Strives to Make Job Search Easier March 7, 2012 — Pasadena, CA — Even though recent job reports indicate unemployment is dropping, finding work is still difficult for a lot of people. Many assume those just graduating from law school have it easy. With such a great education behind them, finding work should be a snap. Unfortunately, this is not the case for many recent graduates, leaving them struggling to pay off a mountain of debt with few open positions. Law school surveys also do students an injustice. Seeing claims like starting salaries of 100K a year can make anyone motivated to get that law degree. However, these surveys are often inaccurate and include only the highest salaries to skew the results. This leaves students and recent graduates with unrealistic expectations. And after piling on a ton of debt, these students are left with no job to pay it off. For some, skipping law school altogether would be the best choice. However, for those who have already graduated, there is a way to make the best of a bad situation. That is to utilize the services provided by LawCrossing.com. The site provides up to date listings of jobs at legal firms and in related legal professions for a small charge to job seekers. This way, recent graduates can view open positions that don't get much publicity and spread out their applications more widely. As a bonus, law firms receive a greater breadth of applicants, allowing them to make the best choice for the position, rather than just the best from the small group that applied. LawCrossing.com is striving to make the application process easier for everyone. And in the current economic state, anything that makes finding a job in one's chosen field like law easier is positive.
