FirstLawJob.com Discusses the Real Job Market for Law School Graduates?

Online, July 4, 2011 (Newswire.com) - If you've recently graduated from Law School and read the employment statistics that your school may have published citing that 90% of its graduates are employed after nine months, you may be asking yourself why can't you find a job!!! The reality is that most law schools publish statistics that count any job in their results! That includes waiting tables, tending bar, or temp work! A far cry from what most law graduates would consider employment, especially after dropping $100K+ on a legal education. The fact of the matter is, it's still a very difficult and competitive job market especially when you consider the fact that approximately 40,000 law graduates enter the legal job market each spring.

In an effort to assist law graduates in their search for employment, FirstLawJob.com is a national legal job-search firm specifically devoted to law students, recent law graduates and entry level attorneys. At FirstLawJob.com, we make no bones about it to our clients, there are no guarantees, but if you want to increase your visibility to potential law firms and increase your chances of securing a legal job, we believe we're the right company for you.

Over the past few months, our clients have begun to see an increase in inquiries regarding interest in their resumes and interviews, but it's still a very challenging job market. The biggest challenge facing recent law school graduates is that many attorneys with experience who have been laid off over the past two years are willing to take entry-level positions, which is a benefit to the law firms who are hiring, but unfortunately to the detriment of recent law graduates.

With that being said, FirstLawJob.com is dedicated and devoted to doing everything we can to help secure great legal jobs for our clients. In this difficult job market, FirstLawJob.com is another avenue available to assist recent law school graduates in their job search.
