The Jobless Lawyer's Handbook: How to Get Hired as a Lawyer Brian Potts

Law school teaches you how to be a lawyer?not how to land a job as a lawyer. The Jobless Lawyer's Handbook: How to Get Hired as a Lawyer teaches you step-by-step how to land a job as a lawyer. When the book's author, Brian Potts, was in law school, he applied to work at every top 100 law firm in the U. S.-and he received form rejection letters from all of them. None of them even interviewed him. Now a partner at one of those law firms, Brian scraped his way to the top using many of the methods in this book.




Be forewarned: this book is blunt. Some might call it crass. That's intentional. You might not agree with some of the book's recommendations and approaches, and that's fine. But hopefully you'll come away from this book having landed your dream job. That's the goal. In fact, this book comes with a guarantee: If you haven't gotten a job as a lawyer within a reasonable amount of time after reading his book (and you've passed a bar exam), Brian will give you your money back.
