404: Staying in Your Lane in the Job Hunt (w/Sadie Jones)


Listen Later

Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we're excited to talk to ex-BigLaw recruiter Sadie Jones about developing your plan for the job hunt process and sticking to it, without focusing on the things you can't control.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Some of the things that job seekers worry about when they shouldn't
  • What should you be focusing on (rather than obsessing over what other people are doing)?
  • Thinking about what you really want job-wise and how to go about achieving it
  • Why gossip and rumors are not advisable in the law school/law firm world
  • How to regroup if you've been searching for a while and not getting the results you want
