My Job Search Resources

Post by hous » Tue Mar 25, 2014 8:30 pm

Hi guys, I though I would share my job search resources with you all in the hopes maybe it will give you a fire to not give up.

Most of these are pretty widely known, but some of them I stumbled upon myself.

https://www.usajobs.gov/ - Tip, don't limit yourself to attorney jobs. Explore the contracts specialist and other specialist gigs.
http://www.ogc.navy.mil/careers/ogcvacancylist.aspx - Navy civilian attorney job board.
https://www.cia.gov/ehl/msgCenterAction.do
https://jobs.myflorida.com/joblist.html ... 8143864976 - If you are interested in working with the state of Florida.
http://www.inhouseblog.com/in-house_counsel_jobs/ - In house job board. Obviously entry-level attorney gigs are hard to come by but there is a pretty sweet Exxon-Mobil position posted that is worth exploring
http://craigslist.org/ - Not going to lie, this is one of the most valuable resources you will come by. Completely underrated and there are many LEGIT small firms that use craigslist exclusively. Working in ID, bankruptcy, or foreclosure is better than being unemployed.
http://member.taxtalent.com/index.cfm?T ... 6355F3035E
http://www.careerbuilder.com - I actually don't use careerbuilder very often. I never had ANY luck with it, but there are jobs posted.
http://www.roberthalf.com/legal/legal-jobs - I never used a recruiter but if you are desperate, give it a shot but don't put all your eggs into this basket.
http://www.indeed.com/viewjob?cmp=Provi ... nFh4y2kD3w - Bonus, a job you can apply to! I never used this but it actually looks like a pretty decent resource.
http://www.idealist.org/search/v2/?qs=Q ... kMsHdEIA== - If public interest is your thing, this is invaluable!
http://careers.martindale.com/jobseeker ... er+Results - Great resource, searches other databases and returns lots of job postings. Some may be repeats but keep grinding.
https://www.law2.byu.edu/Career_Services/jobbank/ - BYU job bank, maybe someone has the login credentials?
http://www.linkedin.com/job/q-legal-jobs
--LinkRemoved--

Some of these links will take you to a narrow search result. Be sure to expand or further narrow on them as you wish.

I hope this helps someone!

Thanks for this. You forgot the best one though, the BYU Job Bank (info in the Vale thread.) Some schools are very good at updating the information.

Great list, very helpful! I would add http://lawstudentjobs.net/ for in-house summer jobs.
