Just a couple of days ago, I commented on the not-so-newsworthy e-mail UT Law students recently received from Career Services. I failed to mention that the e-mail also included the following:
The number of scheduled interview rooms is down overall from last year, with a drop of about 45 percent for employers seeking 3Ls.
So, apparently the 3Ls are freaking out (but, let’s face it, freaking out is what law students do) and tipping off Above the Law as if this is earth-shattering. While a 45 percent drop in scheduled interview rooms is significant, it seems to me that this is par for the course given market conditions, generally. I’m with ATL when they say, “This is probably happening all over the country.”
Market conditions are terrible. There are fewer jobs and those jobs are paying less. These conditions will effect law students at all schools. Of course, some schools will be harder hit than others. 3L recruitment will probably be harder hit than 2L recruitment. Let’s face it, a 3L’s OCI prospects weren’t so great in good times either.
Just my two cents.
