Unemployed 3L About to Graduate, No Jerb
Poast new message in this thread
Date: May 6th, 2013 4:39 AM Author: pea-brained talented station Brothers, 3L here, about to graduate from a T14, pretty crappy grades, trying to figure out a way to get some sort of jerb. I'm fine with getting some typical XO killself, etc. insults, but if some of you brehs have some helpful advice that would be pretty 180. Don't want to out myself, interest is corporate, took corporate/transactional classes, don't need biglaw which is already not an option anyway, but just trying to get even small firms to look at my resume (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142896) |

just get herpes and die.. it probably will be funnier than what ur gonna go through |

Date: May 6th, 2013 6:04 AM Author: pea-brained talented station I understand that its May, I've been searching all of 3L year, I just figured since its May might as well turn to XO, as whats the worst that can happen other than insults. I also have zero debt and have fairly wealthy parents so I would rather avoid getting herpes and dying. I know I'm pretty fucked until after bar results but for the month until I start studying, any actual advice? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142929) |

Sad, but true.
There's nothing redeeming about the ongoing monotony of waking up every morning to no job and no responses in your inbox. |

Date: May 6th, 2013 6:14 AM Author: Razzle Ultramarine Field Travel Guidebook Since you said your family has some $$$$$$$ I'd suggest just waiting it out since you are cumming from a T14
It's truly amazing that now people are generation cannot even get ANY legal job cumming out of a T14, and yet Boomers could get any job they wanted cumming out of ANY law school |

Date: May 6th, 2013 6:31 AM Author: pea-brained talented station Hah yeah seriously. It's always fun having a partner who went to Cardozo and graduated with zero honors and no journal act disgusted with even interviewing me because I have meh grades from a substantially better school than his alma mater and just happened to have been born two generations late unlike his self-righteous boomer ass (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142941) |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 6:45 AM Author: Razzle Ultramarine Field Travel Guidebook It's funny because when I was 19-21 I never understood how all these doods in that generation managed to do so well for themselves when they were seemingly clueless.
Wasn't till I hit 25-26 that I realize how badly they raped are generation. I hate them all.
I had to pay a $170 transfer fee today for the used car I bought because the pensioner who owned it got special discounts--I mentioned to the admin lady that my generation will never sniff any of those benefits once we reach that age and she laughed and said " I don't think so either." |

Date: May 6th, 2013 6:53 AM Author: pea-brained talented station Seriously man, I could sort of live with them badly fucking over our generation if they weren't such self-righteous dicks about it. Nothing more frustrating than talking to some retarded boomer who whines about our generation being lazy, entitled, stupid, and worthless and acting as though the shitty legal market and bad job market in general is not a big deal and that in their day things were just as bad if not worse (not true) and then pretend as if they weren't the ones to fuck things up to the point that they crashed the damn economy just in time for my 20s, the end of my education, and trying to begin my career (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142954) |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 6:57 AM Author: Razzle Ultramarine Field Travel Guidebook It's amazing how an entire generation of people can literally be full of self righteous assholes.
I cannot believe I will essentially spend all my career treating these fuckers while they try to extend their shitty ass lives |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:05 AM Author: pea-brained talented station I would bet that if all the boomers became their 20-30 year old selves right now and were thrown into the shit they created for our generation, they would fail much more than our generation currently is right now. The majority of them were a bunch of fucking morons who got lucky being born 20-40 years before we were (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142960) |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:09 AM Author: Razzle Ultramarine Field Travel Guidebook No question about it. Sometimes I wonder if there's any point in working hard since my job will turn to shit within 10 years anyways.
Do you're parents help you out with a lot of shit? |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:16 AM Author: pea-brained talented station Eh, I was lucky in that they paid my tuition and expenses in law school. They're not thrilled that I didn't perform that great academically, a blow softened by the fact that I am graduating from a top 10 school (parents are sometimes really easily impressed by stupid metrics like rankings), and that I haven't been able to find a job, but at this point, we've reached an understanding where until I find a job, I'll live rent-free with them and provide me with food and the basics while I search for a job. They had actually been fine with providing the basics plus things like money for entertainment here and there, nights out etc but as a K-JD and being 25 and having lived off my parents my whole life, I felt bad and couldn't accept that offer. I'm not obsessed with biglaw, never was, just saw it as a means to an end, I would rather work at a 10 person firm that does work that I find interesting (or at least, as interesting as you can find in the dry world of law) where I'll get good training/mentoring and eke out a middle-class existence (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142966) |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:25 AM Author: Razzle Ultramarine Field Travel Guidebook I used to feel that way too but you have to understand the gains of Boomers are nearly universally ill-gotten and bloated so if anything they should be supporting you as they're DUTY.
What got you into law in the first place? Inertia? |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:35 AM Author: pea-brained talented station I was a political science major, realized close to graduation that I thought political science was boring and useless, and that I should have majored in finance/economics and wanted to work in business, but because it was too late for that and it seemed unlikely I would be able to find entry level work for two years that would be solid enough experience to get into a good MBA program in a few years, I decided to pursue my secondary interest in law, which I'd had since the latter years of high school, and then go into corporate law so that I could (naively as I now know) pursue my interest in business and law. No lawyers in my family, all I knew of law school really was just anecdotal information here and there from friends/parents friends, reading the book "1L" etc. I also stupidly wanted to get the JD, finish, and start my career and making money as fast as I could and it was only a year or two into law school that I realized there was no rush, I'm young, and should have enjoyed my 20s a bit more. I knew that the legal job market wasn't great but I thought it would pick up a bit because I figured, I'm class of 2013 I should be okay (had no idea about OCI and all that really). The only reason I even chose to go to a T14 school was because everything I saw about job prospects seemed to relate to this going to a T14 school thing and so after I scored quite high on the LSAT, I got into much of the lower half of the T14, waitlisted at places like CCN and flash forward three years later, here I am today, unemployed like so many of my friends and other law students, T14 and non-T14 alike, but truly thankful that I am not in the debt-situation that many of my friends and peers are in. What about you? Are you currently working as an attorney or are you in law school as well (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142985) |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:40 AM Author: Razzle Ultramarine Field Travel Guidebook Damn man. Yeah i don't understand why people go straight into professional school rather than just enjoy life for a few years.
Nah man I am in med school--it's pretty shitty too but job prospects are less grim, thankfully.
I once considered law though back in the day... |

Date: May 6th, 2013 7:28 AM Author: Beady-eyed demanding home gay wizard Just LOL at "K-JD" losers who never had a real job. You fell for the boomer scam big time. Good luck, kid. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142971) |

|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:37 AM Author: pea-brained talented station I'm going to just clarify for the thread. I did not just start searching for jobs today, in May of 2013, right as I'm about to graduate. I have spent the last 2.5 years of law school looking for a permanent job unsuccessfully after whiffing at OCI in 2011, I just created this thread out of desperation and with time running out before bar prep starts to see if any XOers, through the heavy amount of insults I anticipated receiving including yours, actually had some insightful advice. Clearly I was wrong and this will likely be a useless endeavour. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23142988) |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:40 AM Author: Cracking main people what the fuck were you doing?
where did you volunteer during law school? did you apply to public defenders and regional conflict offices? did you go weekly alumni networking events and talk to alumni or just sit in the corner drinking beers with your "friends?"
are you a chink? i'm trying to see how you legitimately can't find a legal job. everyone moron i know is employed. |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:43 AM Author: pea-brained talented station Did the whole networking grind, have applied to all those places or more, went to every alumni networking event my school had to offer and even my undergrad had to offer, have been told numerous times that I interview well. My grades are meh but not THAT meh. Just been unlucky I guess. And no, not asian, white male, probably a 7-8 objectively, 5'10, thin, so no abnormal physical defects holding me back either. A good 30+% of my year still has nothing at graduation so I'm not sure how every moron you know is employed (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143003) |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 7:49 AM Author: Cracking main people what groups have a joined? you got rejected from volunteer work?
maybe you're just a piece of shit asshole then.
i know people middle of the pack from places like fsu, uf, miami getting biglaw, midlaw, smalllaw. in fact i don't know one unemployed person who has been networking.
tell me about your network grind? what connections have you made? how many lunches have you invited attorneys out to? |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 8:00 AM Author: pea-brained talented station You've figured me out man, bravo. I've been trying to realize what my issue is and it never occurred to me that I might be a piece of shit asshole. And FSU/UF/Miami all employed? That seems..plausible. I've probably done 50+ lunches, have driven to other cities/states even to meet up with an attorney/attorneys, have made connections with around 80/90 alumni that I've been in contact with since 2L year and make sure to follow-up with and stay in good communication with, have spoken with family friends who are attorneys, etc (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143021) |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 8:02 AM Author: Cracking main people so maybe you're just an asshole without friends? why aren't your parents' friends finding you jobs.
look at my point of few. you're saying you went to a t14 school and are a decent looking white dude who networked his ass off around the country yet you can't even land a public defender or dept child services legal job? what am i supposed to think? keep in mind that tons of shit law school grads are landing jobs without a hitch. |
|
Date: May 6th, 2013 8:05 AM Author: pea-brained talented station Honestly, might just be my grades. 3.0 from a T14. The impression I've gotten is that many places assume T14s grade inflate (and yes, they do relative to most law schools) and so to them, my 3.0 in their eyes means I've "failed" law school. That's been the impression I think from many law firms, government is just not really hiring right now and the places that are, I don't have the grades for, as for public interest, you'd be surprised, because my resume doesn't really demonstrate much in the way of public interest, even the version of my resume that's aimed at those jobs, most public interest/volunteer places don't really give me the time of day either (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143029) |

Date: May 6th, 2013 8:57 AM Author: pea-brained talented station While I understand those are pretty crappy grades, honestly, do you really think that's so extremely bad that I can't do competent work at a law firm? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143123) |

Date: May 6th, 2013 8:58 AM Author: pea-brained talented station I mean, if a 3.0 at a T14 is pure shit, does that mean everyone with a 3.0 at the other 186 law schools ranked lower aren't deserving of any sort of gainful employment either? Considering there are bros with 2.5s from big state U with decent jobs out of undergrad, I don't see why a T14 3.0 should make me beyond redemption for a legal job (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143127) |

Date: May 6th, 2013 9:02 AM Author: Seedy trailer park doctorate I think he's saying a 3.0 at a T14 is pure shit because the curve at most of those schools is like a 3.33. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143136) |

Date: May 6th, 2013 9:07 AM Author: pea-brained talented station No I know, I understand most have a 3.3 curve, and that I'm below median by a decent amount, so clearly my grades are crappy, but I would hope that going to a T14, having a good undergrad and good grades before that, wouldn't all be negated by a 3.0 GPA. In all of my summer internships during law school I always received great reviews for my work product so while I have yet to master law school exams, I would hope someone would give me a shot because I do think I can produce competent legal work as well as many of my classmates save for probably the top 20% who are in a class of their own (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143152) |

Date: May 6th, 2013 9:10 AM Author: pea-brained talented station It's not flame but believe what you want, I don't give a shit. What makes it flame? That I don't think a 3.0 at a T14 is the worst thing on earth? That I think I can still be a competent lawyer if given a shot? Please, do enlighten me (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143164) |

Date: May 6th, 2013 9:42 AM Author: flushed legal warrant genital piercing it shows that you are either objectively stupid or that you didn't care AT ALL about your grades. I have friends that seriously don't give a fuck about their grades and their GPAs are still higher than a 3.0 (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2248579&forum_id=2#23143263) |

Date: May 6th, 2013 9:59 AM Author: Pink crackhouse I think it sends a red flag. It says you're smart enough to do well on LSAT and get grades in college, but didn't put in the work in LS. You also have no work experience so you can't rebut this presumption by pointing to a promotion. What reason do you give people if they ask about grades?

Date: May 6th, 2013 8:50 AM Author: Seedy trailer park doctorate Honestly, if you're coming from a T14, you could probably find a low stress compliance job (or some other kind of non-legal job) paying like $75-80k pretty easily.

my friend found something like this and he's not from a t14. |

Maybe hys would help but nobody is going to care you went to uva or whatever. This dude has a fucking political science degree.

then go though Tech Crunch or Hacker News and look for startups w/ < 10 or so people that you can make your self useful for
if you're at a T14 school, there are probably some CS dudes in the undergrad trying to start something, ask around, see if whatever they are trying to start sounds promising to you/ worth your time, see if you can brainstorm ways to add value
there is probably a technology transfer office at your school, see if anything going on there seems promising to you
there is probably professors in the business school who teach an entrapreunership class, see if he has any students in who are starting something that will need legal help |
