Video: Managing a Legal Career Transition in Tough Times

The National Association for Law Placement (NALP) and ALI-ABA, as a public service are offering this 75 minute presentation by Marcia Pennington Shannon and Susan G. Manch of Shannon and Manch LLP. They have great ideas for attorneys and students seeking employment from the job search through the interview.
There is also great advice for answering hard questions such as:

• was your lay off performance based
• why would you want to work for us when you have a JD
• why should we hire you, you'll just leave when the market improves
• should you list transition jobs (jobs to feed you and/or your family)
