In this difficult economy the legal job market is an increasingly competitive place. There are more law students seeking clerk positions than the larger firms can handle or want. Small firms might not have the financial resources to hire a full-time associate, but they may need additional manpower in the office to stay on top of the caseload. Although the notion of hiring a part-time clerk may be daunting, the benefits received by both parties make the experience more than worth it.
• How does a small firm hire a clerk? A firm in a city with a law school should contact the school’s career services office. Career services personnel will be happy to send an e-mail to students alerting them of the open position.
