Question about WE - length versus relevance?

Post by ConMan345 » Thu Jun 10, 2010 3:02 pm

So, I have a job that, as far as I can tell, has me doing pretty relevant stuff. I draft motions and memos, submitted things (via my bosses) to federal court, wrote responses to AUSAs, met and interviewed clients, done lots of legal research, etc. However, it's for a small firm, and it will only have been for less than a year.

My questions are: does this even count as "good" work experience? Will the time I've spent here be laughably short for leveraging my "work experience" at OCI? How would I best frame it for firms at OCI? Am I a totally off-base 0L?
