I don't expect someone to hand me a job on a silver platter but good ideas would be appreciated.
I graduated from a top school but it was out of state and thus non-existent to New York lawyers. I had average grades and awards for public service. My school's CSO is useless, can only find jobs in St. Louis, and has not heard of New York City.
I've been working as a temp lawyer for several years to pay the bills but now I feel I've been labeled as a "Temp" and thus untouchable. The work provides no marketable experience.
I'm not looking to be a big firm associate or an ADA. I know that's not likely. I don't expect to get 100 grand a year.
I want a job that allows me to pay my student loans and rent. If I have to I'll try to declare bankruptcy for as much of my other debt as I can. I want to get a job that teaches me something or, in other words, invests in me.
I have no connections in New York. Any ideas?
