Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're talking with ex-BigLaw recruiter Sadie Jones, about how to start thinking about your 2L job search when you're still a 1L.
In this episode we discuss:
- What your priority should be at this point in your 1L year
- How to get organized and set yourself up for success
- Why you should engage with your Career Services office sooner rather than later
- How to maximize your 1L summer experience in your 2L job search
- Why networking both on and off campus can pay off
- How to stand out by being prepared and polished from the start of your job search
