Dear Legal Eagle,
I am a recent graduate, and I'm not having much luck in getting a job. Are there some general tips you can offer me in my job search? I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.
Dear Legal Eagle,

Did you know . . .
In Canada, if a debt is higher than 25 cents, it is illegal to pay it with pennies. In Clarendon, Texas, there is reportedly a law on the books that lawyers must accept eggs, chickens, or other produce, as well as money, as payment of legal fees.

Common Resume and Cover Letter Pitfalls
by Marty Schultz-Akerson
As a resume counselor to attorneys from all types of practice areas and career levels, I am always surprised to see many of the same errors in my clients' original resumes and cover letters. The comparison has been made between legal jobseekers and snowflakes: No two are alike. Yet while it is true that in preparing a resume, the objective is to set oneself apart from the competition, the path to that winning document will often be the same. Here are a few common mistakes (and remedies) in preparing legal resumes and cover letters.
Don't Let Your School Control the Recruiting Process
by Theresa DeLoach
Every law student in this country is familiar with Career Services. You have probably used them to look for either a summer associate position, or a law clerk position while you attended school, or even a post-graduation position after you had taken the bar exam but before your results arrived. Some students have achieved varying degrees of success, but most students have been left dissatisfied.
