Keep an eye on your school's Symplicity (or other job website) for postings. I landed a super-awesome corporate in house position through Symplicity at a F100 company, and it was paid. You'd be surprised how many people actually have success through Symplicity, despite how generic and impersonal it seems.

Does more stuff like this get added in time? Cuz my simplicity doesn't have that much so I guess no I just have to wait for things to pop up.KM2016 wrote:Keep an eye on your school's Symplicity (or other job website) for postings.

Re: 1L Summer Job Search C/O 2017
Obviously more shit gets added to symplicity as time goes, as skers said, you guys have only been able to apply for jobs for 2 weeks. The 1L search can be long and drawn out, don't stress it. If you're really worried about it, just check other job posting sites. PSJD has some good shit.scottidsntknow wrote:Does more stuff like this get added in time?

Re: 1L Summer Job Search C/O 2017
Yes. Most companies don't even think about their summer hiring needs until February-April. Symplicity will really start to pick up after the new year, and be a great tool during spring semester, especially if your school is in a major market.scottidsntknow wrote:Does more stuff like this get added in time?

When sending a writing sample from LRW, are people including a blurb about what that writing sample is about and stuff?

Last week I heard nothing every day but Thursday - and on Thursday I heard from 4 firms.
Anyone have a similar experience?
Maybe Thursday is the day.

You could hear from them today. Or tomorrow. Or in January. Or never. That's how they roll.nothingtosee wrote:Last week I heard nothing every day but Thursday - and on Thursday I heard from 4 firms.
