State of the job market...

[T. Durden]

Is it just me or does it seem like the job market for 2Ls sucks right now?

I don't think it's just you, as a lot of my friends and classmates are saying the same thing.

I'm also not sure how much of a recent problem it is; seems like this has been the trend the last few years.

Too many schools. Too large class sizes.

[T. Durden]

it's very frustrating .. all that hard 1L work seem to be for nothing...

[S|]

It's not the job market.

[Bored 3L]

Actually, for big firms anyway, this  year the market is supposed to be quite strong, stronger than it has been in years. 

[T. Durden]

hahaha well

i guess that leaves me with only one conclusion...

Wages are thru the roof for 2L associates.  That's no sign of a struggling market.

hahaha well

i guess that leaves me with only one conclusion...

The only set of objective data I'm aware of points to a strong market.  Take from it what you will.

everyone is getting a lot of interviews

very few of us are actually landing jobs, however (t14 and t20 biglaw applicants)

maybe this is how it's supposed to go? i don't know... it's tough out there...
