LEVERAGING LINKEDIN
LinkedIn can be known for “cringe” posts with tenuous connections to career advice, or self-congratulatory “humbled and honored” posts.
But, LinkedIn is also a treasure trove of content, connections, job postings, and other helpful resources (including memes) – if you are a law student, you can ignore LinkedIn at your peril!
Given the power of LinkedIn in this phase of a law student’s career to learn, connect, engage, and apply, we are humbled and honored to include a category on our site dedicated to leveraging LinkedIn.

Dear 1L, You should include your LinkedIn address (your .url) with your email and phone number at the top of your resume.
Did you know you can also customize your LinkedIn address to remove all the extraneous numbers & letters that come with your default .url?
