The Lawyer's Guide To Finding Success In Any Job Market
Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

Though it's commonly thought that law is a perennial career, today's legal eagles are learning otherwise. And as recent news coverage suggests, most are in desperate need of guidance on how to keep their jobs and what to do if they're let go. The legal landscape has shifted, and keen lawyers must know how to navigate it. With 25 years in legal career counseling, Hermann helps attorneys deal with downsizing in a precarious economy. The book provides a savvy outlook on the current job scene, with specifi c topics that include: opportunities impervious to economic flux; beating "recession depression"; using a law degree outside the "mainstream"; combining career opportunities; maximizing contacts; nailing an interview; and relocation considerations. This book focuses primarily on the job-search process for attorneys who've been recently displaced, with additional tips for those who wish to redirect their career focus as a result.

I'm so glad I found this book. No more touchy feel books about whether one should leave "The Law" and how to deal with the emotional trauma of the decision. This author lists the areas into which lawyers can most easily transition, provides instruction on where to look, how to present one's legal experience to be most appealing, and provides, complete with web addresses, a list of companies likely to hire, organizations to join, etc.Worth every single penny. Highly practical and pragmatic, which any lawyer can appreciate.

The first book of its type for lawyers seeking concrete, go-to information about real market trends and prospective legal and law-related employers--beyond the usual suspects. An attorney job-seeker in today's market would be remiss in not consulting this valuable resource.
