Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're talking with ex-BigLaw recruiter Sadie Jones about how to make sure you're getting the information you need to do a good job on any assignment in a legal workplace.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • What to do when you get called into a meeting to discuss a new assignment
  • What NOT to do when you get called into a meeting to discuss a new assignment
  • Common ways things can go wrong on an assignment
  • Why you need to be really careful with legal research tools
  • How to get more information without looking like you weren’t paying attention or have no idea what you’re doing (even if you don’t!)
