Hi everyone,

I really need some advice. I plan on doing IP. I have been told its tough to find a job unless you have a lot of experience. IS this true? How would I be able to find a job right after graduating?

Depends. Are you patent bar eligible? Do you have any work experience or are you going straight from undergrad to JD? What's your major?

Generally, it's a bad idea to do IP without either a PhD or a few years of work experience (3 years+). You probably can find a job, but you're much less desirable when the most complicated systems you have worked with were the sandboxes you got to play in during undergrad.

You've got more responses in the other thread where you asked about this, so I'm going to lock this one.
