Hi All,
An aunt/uncle/1st Cousin of mine is a President at major corp (who maintains relationships with a number of biglaw firms). I'm a no-offered 3L hoping to get back on the train. They're willing to go to bat for me, but I don't know what to ask specifically. In the past they've put me in touch with their contacts, but indicated that if I have a more concrete ask they'd be game. I just don't know what that ask should be. Any thoughts on this?

I'd ask for a legal job of some sort... if they could swing big-law do that. Would help if your grades were at or near the cut-off for the firm you want them to ask.
