Re: NYC Law Dept?
he's in the Appeals division - is that a good one? do they hire?

Also, if you know a 2L summering there now from your law school, ask them to put in a good word for you if you plan to apply for real.

Re: NYC Law Dept?
appeals doesn't hire straight out of law school. they have taken some deferred associates though. who turns down free labor?
nyc law dept. varies in desirability/work load by division. environmental, affirmative lit, general lit, admin, appeals, legal counsel are more desirable. those divisions, alas, hire way fewer people (as in maybe 1 a year vs 10+ a year) than torts, special fed, and family court.
