How to choose a summer associate internship offer
[00:00:00] I'm looking for advice, I still haven't looked down a summer associate internship offer. I have a few. Is there anything else to do, besides not applying to anything?
If you don't have a position in a law firm right now, that's okay. You still have a couple of months.
My advice is that I always recommend that people try to get a summer internship or a law firm job in the town that they're from. So applying to those firms in the market that you're from is always a good idea. The only other thing I'd recommend is just making sure that you do the same thing with all the law firms in the town and the town where you're going to school.
That's also very useful and could be a good idea. And then also applying to everything and everything is a good idea. Then many times offering, going into local law offices to give your resume out and walking in personally can also be a good thing. And it is a good idea to make sure you always have it's always a good idea for you to do whatever you can to get a job.
So you need to push yourself very hard to try to get a position. And that means many times just going places [00:01:00] knocking on doors and saying your work for free and that sort of thing. It is important to work in a law firm. One other thought that I just had is if you're going to be in the town where your law school is over the summer, you, sometimes you can take a class or something and maybe get a law firm to hire you on a part-time basis and put that down on your resume as well, a smaller law firm in town if you want to stay there.
But just because you don't have a job in a big firm, doesn't mean you can never work in a big firm and you should go all out and apply to as many places you can.
