Listen Later

Welcome to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today we're talking with Sadie Jones, a former BigLaw recruiter, about job situations that come up surrounding the bar exam. This includes studying for the bar(s) while working and what typically happens at work if you fail the bar.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • What kinds of situations can arise involving bar study while working
  • Whether you should take time off from working to study for the bar
  • If you do need time off work – to whom should you talk at work and how can you prepare for the conversation?
  • The tough realities of studying for the bar while working
  • How bad is it if you fail the bar and how should you tell your job?
