Don't overthink it!!! If you feel uncomfortable, it will make your interviewer feel uncomfortable and reflect in your interview performance. Take deep breathes throughout the process to keep things under control :)
Great video, Julian! Another video idea - how to decide on the fields to practice and the process of figuring out what interests you. I'd love to hear about your story of figuring this out too!
Hi Julian, Thats my first time watching your video, I was chilling and suddenly your video pop out, anyways I’m glad I watched your video and I just subscribed to your channel since I found it helpful, interesting and informative… I’m not sure if you already made a video talking about immigration law or not since I want to do immigration law that’s what I’m thinking but I need more information about it if you have got any, also I’m still studying for the LSAT but I’m so nervous since I like to study by myself but I was wondering how many hours should I study everyday? Since I’m taking my summer courses and doing my internship how do you think I should organize my schedule? Sorry I’m typing a lot but I really need your help and advice. Last question how can I find immigration lawyers so I can do an informational interview if you have got any suggestions? I hope you reply thank you for your time.
I interned at the Council of Economic Advisers! It was great - also have another YT video about my experience there: czcams.com/video/J_ndGYeKx34/video.html
This might actually be good advice. . .but the problem is, the overwhelming majority of law students will never, ever, get an interview for so much as summer work at a large law firm in their entire lives. So this advice is completely and totally irrelevant to the great majority of law students and recent graduates. At most law schools, large law firms, aka "Biglaw" will only hire students in the top 10 percent of their class (top 5 percent for Cravath, Skadden, and other very grade-sensitive law firms). This means that big law is completely irrelevant to 9/10 law students in these schools. And yes, you can say that it's more like top 25 percent at highly ranked law schools, but it also more like 0 percent at low ranked law schools. Overall, for the overwhelming majority of law students, they will never, ever, get a single interview with a large law firm in their entire lives. They don't need to worry about preparing for an interview that they will never have.
@@alucardofficial7074 Yeah, that's 10 percent of the class at good law schools, and zero percent of the class at garbage law schools. Any way you slice it, overall less than one law student in 10 will ever be given an opportunity at "biglaw". That stuff is great for TV shows and movies, not so much for reality.
@@criminallaw9573 There are schools outside of the T100 that send more than 10-15% of graduates to big law-and there are less than 200 accredited law schools. More than half of accredited law schools send at least 10% of graduates to Big Law.
