We should also consider the fact that everyone who went to law school didn't go for the right reasons. Nor is everyone competent. Lawyers I know who really wanted to be lawyers for reasons other than money and not knowing what else to do with their lives are doing well. People who pursued JD's because they didn't know what else to do are having some issues. And even when they find jobs they still aren't happy.
There's no correction. I didn't say they DIDNT include that. But there are some law schools that show the breakdown of whether the jobs are legal or not. And some schools distribute newsletters to alumni that list EXACTLY what each student is doing the first year after graduation.
Which ones?

Not really. Here, the DA is getting about 400 application for every open position. Just like teaching is oversaturated, so are the DA positions that used to be the fallback.
I know you don't think I'm going to sit here and list the schools that do this. Inwill say this: I know of at least 3 law schools in my state that do it.
As for the DA positions, again what areas? Large metro. Small rural?

Where I am there are not that many openings and generally ADA positions require/strongly prefer some litigation experience. I live in the suburbs, but am working in the country.

So name them.

Not here. They don't require litigation exprience.
None of them do, including the one being sued. That's not the issue.
But I'm guessing from your refusal to answer simple questions, you really aren't that concerned with what is actually going on.
I refused to answer your question. Yes. Partly because I'm not sure why knowing the names of the schools will help. Partly because I hate how you demanded that I "name them."
I'm not concerned about her plight though. I think her case is BS. First, she's been doing doc review for 3 years. Second she stated she couldn't find a job that would pay more than a non legal job. Those two things tell me where her head is on this. And she can't blame the school. This is her fault.
