How Does A Foreign Trained Attorney Get Interviews
[00:00:00] I'm a foreign-trained attorney with a nursing degree, I'm thinking of Medical Malpractice Law. I've been applying to firms and hadn't been able to get an interview. Any advice would be appreciated.
Okay. I'm assuming you, you're admitted to the bar.
So if you're admitted to the bar, that's helpful. And then in your cover letters, you need to explain if you can work in the company or not explain why you can work. Explain, you have a green card or whatever it is, you know what you're playing, you have what you need to work in the US.
The only other thing is I would apply widely. One of the things I teach and I try to teach every week is the biggest mistake you can make is applying just to jobs that are advertised. So you need to apply to all firms that do medical malpractice.
That just means, any firm you can find that does that, you should be applying to. You need to do research if you're in a major market, like a major market would, even a market in Philadelphia. There are probably several hundred firms that do medical malpractice and so you need to really do whatever you can to apply to all those firms.
