Recommended Online Resources—Legal Careers:

• Check out the National Association for Legal Career Professionals for statistics, resources, and other information: http://www.nalp.org/
• Keep up to date on legal employment trends by reading articles and subscribing to newsletters and news feeds about law firms and the legal field. Some of my favorites are Law.com (http://www.law.com/jsp/law/index.jsp); The National Jurist and PreLaw Magazine (http://www.njplonline.com/); LawCrossing.com (http://www.lawcrossing.com/); Emplawyernet (http://www.emplawyernet.com/); Vault.com (http://www.vault.com/index.jsp) and Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly (http://www.masslawyersweekly.com/).
• Talk to those who were in your shoes just a few years ago: join a young lawyers’ association as a student member, or seek out a young lawyer mentor. See, for example: the Massachusetts Bar Association Young Lawyers Division at http://www.massbar.org/for-attorneys/young-lawyers-division; the Boston Bar Association at http://www.bostonbar.org/; and the ABA’s Young Lawyers Division at http://www.abanet.org/yld/home.html.
