Any success at getting Big Law support staff positions?
Wondering if recent law grads have had any success applying for support staff positions in the big firms? Not talking about staff attorney gigs, but working as a secretary, paralegal, HR, conflicts analysist, etc? The only job postings at the larger firms are for support staff. Plus a lot of these positions (even entry level), pay better than what you would receive as an attorney at a small firm. I've been applying to these positions with no success. I get the feeling that firms immediately reject you once they see that you have a JD. Anyone else doing the same?
