Event Invitation: The Importance of Intangibles in the Changing Job Market

26 August 2009

The Importance of Intangibles in the Changing Job Market

 

Thursday, September 3rd, 2009,

5:00– 6:30 p.m., with Reception to Follow

UCLA School of Law , Room 1430

 

 

Finding a Job that's Right for You

 

The classes of 2010, 2011, and 2012 are the "guinea pigs" for firms re-thinking hiring, training, billing and compensation. Smart job searches are the key to success. Walk into your next interview knowing what makes a future employer right for you so you can tell them why you're right for them.

 

And then what?

Soft Skills Bridge the Gap from Foot in the Door to Employment Offer

 

Join Jessie Kornberg, Executive Director, Ms. JD and three BigLaw hiring partners for a panel discussion of the intangibles to success job hunting and career advancement: how to utilize professor & attorney mentorships, foster professional networks, and effectively self-promote within those relationships. 

 

Practice Make Perfect

 

Following the panel discussion join members of WLALA and the Beverly Hills Bar Association for a reception in the courtyard and put the advice on intangibles to use!

 

This Ms. JD & NWLSO event is made possible by generous support from McGuireWoods, a 2009 Best Law Firm for Women Award Winner.

 

Please note: Parking at UCLA is limited. $10 garage parking and credit card enabled metered parking is available on the campus, but carpooling is strongly recommended.

 

For more information contact Jessie Kornberg (kornberg@ms-jd.org).
