It's not kicks and giggles, but overall a good job for the money.

Step 1: Pick where you want to live (preferably somewhere with jobs) and narrow your search that way.

BigLaw won't expand options, it will narrow them (as did law school)

I’d love to go the USAO route. Do you think biglaw helped you open that door?

BigLaw Lit gives way fewer in house options than BigLaw corporate
