LCS Intern
future law school graduate, the
job market may even be downright frightening. To add to it, your resume or
cover letter may even have some unwanted cobwebs that need to be
cleaned up.
Here at Law Career Services, we want to remind you of all
the treats that we give out not only during the Halloween season, but on a
daily basis:
- Job Postings – While working at LCS, I have been able to see the many potential job experiences located throughout the Bay Area, nation, and even internationally! It is so easy to forget to log into your LCSonline account and sift through the many job postings that are added on a daily basis. You can easily set up a Job Agent defined by geographic preference areas so that you automatically receive emails whenever a job posting in your preferred area is created. To set this up, log onto LCSonline, click “My Profile,” then click “Academic,” and finally, click “Automatic Email Notifications – Geographic Preference Areas.” Now you are set up with three geographic preference areas from anywhere in the world!
- Twitter and the LCS blog – If you’re reading this, you have found our blog. On the LCS blog, we not only post great articles written by the LCS staff, but also share networking opportunities and information regarding upcoming job fairs. Also, to make job searches even more convenient for students, LCS has created a Twitter account which has tweets about every new job that we post on LCSonline. Follow us and receive our tweets at @GGULCS.
- Handouts – Many times, we need a quick and efficient fix in our job search. For some, the issue may be a cover letter, others a resume. Either way, LCS has you covered with handouts that show many helpful tips! Come to the LCS office to see our display stand full of helpful information or access them via our electronic Resource Library in LCSonline.
- On-campus Information Sessions – LCS plans countless information sessions throughout the semester that focus on how to find jobs and different career paths. Many of these sessions are conveniently held during the lunch hour and are often recorded for those who cannot attend. These videos can be found on our YouTube page here.
- Career Counseling Sessions – The foundation of LCS is our career counseling. Our counselors were all once practicing attorneys. They have a wide variety of backgrounds that can help students find their perfect fit and assist with any job search matters that may surprise you along the way. We recommend that all students meet with an LCS counselor at least once a semester to make sure your career development plans stay on track.
