Candidate FAQ
As a recent law graduate, should I work with a legal search firm?

As a general rule, a legal search firm will be nothing but an impediment to a recent law school graduate (less than one year out) as law firms and corporations rarely are willing to pay a placement fee to a search firm for candidates without at least one year of legal experience. Candidates who are completing clerkships occasionally are exceptions to this rule. As a recent law school graduate, it is important to use the resources available to you through your law school placement office, as well as advertisements, both in print and on the Internet.
