[blindlaw] advice

[ckrugman at sbcglobal.net]

Depending on what your interests many law firms will consider hiring 
prospective attorneys as clerks to do research and transactional work etc. 
until they receive their bar results. There are also volunteer 
opportunitites with legal aid programs or various organizations that do 
public interest law or advocacy. I would go through tne normal job search 
techniques, identifying potential firms and do necessary networking and 
pounding the pavement.

Hi everybody.

I'm writing this post because I am seeking some advice. I am Virginia barred 
(and as of two weeks ago, D.C. pending because I sat for the exam.)

Until bar results come out in May, I'm looking for some legal work. The 
advice that I'm seeking is where I should look. Would a law firm or other 
legal entity desire me or someone who's a 3L? Obviously, Northern Virginia 
and D.C. is a big place with a lot of opportunity; I just don't know where 
to look.

If anyone out there has any ideas, please let me know.

Thanks.

Mike
