Which Letter of Rec to use?

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Mar 12, 2018 9:29 am

I'm applying for a job at my State AG's office and it asked to include 3 letters of rec. Two of which I'm using are a former Assistant AG and the recruiting partner from the firm I summered at. My question is in regards to the third one, I have two that I get to choose from. One is an adjunct professor who is a very well renowned attorney in my state, (it's also a small state where everyone knows everyone) the letter is decent, but seems fairly generic. The other speaks very highly of me and is tailored especially to me, but it's from my 1L professor, he is also an attorney from from a Texas firm and not sure how renowned he is in my state.
