Choosing Small, Choosing Smart: Job Search Strategies for Lawyers in the Small Firm Market, Revised Second Edition

This Revised Second Edition (replacing a title by the same name) still includes a wealth of advice on the pros and cons of small firm practice, career paths for the small firm practitioner, and job search strategies for finding a job. The Revised Edition has new sidebars on breaking into the small firm markets in DC, LA, San Francisco, and New York, new sample cover letters and resumes, new advice on avoiding resume glitches and online embarrassments, and an updated resource section. With the publication of this new edition, the first edition (now on Amazon's website) is out of print.
