Working between bar and start at firm

Post by fogcue2 » Wed Apr 30, 2014 10:06 pm

Does anyone have experience working at a non-legal job between the bar exam and the start of their time in BigLaw? While, I know the ideal is to take the bar and travel/enjoy yourself before working, I have some financial obligations/children and finding some temp work would help me to bridge the gap. If it's not legal work, do firms typically care? Do they typically want to approve it,etc.? Any experience/advice would be helpful.

this might be a long shot but maybe ask the firm you're headed to?
