Pre-Trump, it was the best place to get complex litigation experience right out of the gate. Once you did a few years at DOJ you were very attractive to biglaw, boutiques, you name it. If they see DOJ they know you have top credentials and good experience working in high volume, high stakes litigation.

Now? Absolutely radioactive to employers. Most will file your resume in the circular filing bin unless you have a connection there that can vouch for you that you never misled the court, ignored court orders, made unsupported or unconstitutional arguments, etc.

Heartbreaking.

the current DOJ is on social media begging people to apply. it's obviously not prestigious now and probably filled with gutter trash from places like Liberty U.

To be respectable you have to show absolute deference to the opinion of the AG on any given matter. But to be respectable you also have to know this AG is fraud. The way you thread that needle is to be candid with the court, but that just gets you fired so what's the point?

its a shame reddit allows people to hide their posts now. i loved clicking on profiles like this and all their other posts are about their 153 LSAT and long covid.

This is an underrated aspect of LinkedIn. You'll see some guy criticizing some CEO's management style in the comments of some post and suggesting how he'd do it better, click through, and see "Papa John's - Team Member - 8 years, 3 months".

i admire the honest gumption of the type of fella that wouldn't embellish his title to "Papa John's -- Team Leader" but still feels entitled to tell a CEO how to run a business.

IIRC their hiring ads specifically say you must be on board with Trump and the MAGA agenda. And a large percentage of highly educated people in law firms and elsewhere will not want to hire someone who has that mindset.

Nazi lawyers ended up as judges after the war. This just isn't an actual issue.
