This summer, fewer summer associate positions are available at large firms: There are 19 fewer jobs than the summer of 2013. That’s down 4 percent from last year. What prevented those numbers from being worse is that a handful of firms significantly boosted their summer associate ranks.
Norton Rose Fulbright is bringing in the largest class among Texas’ big firms, with 71 summer associates in the Lone Star State. That’s up 27 percent from last year’s class of 56. Houston partner Andrew Price, chairman of the firm’s U.S. employment committee, attributes the larger size to more interest from students in the firm, generated by the June 2013 combination of Fulbright & Jaworksi and Norton Rose.
