Currently a 1L and seeking some insight. background info: i have a masters in international economics and finance, worked as a file assistant at Kirkland during college, and have other extensive legal background as an assistant. My career advisor told me to stay up to date with salaries and geographical locations and all the works. Where can I go to get insight on how much someone with a like background gets paid? Does a masters matter? I want to do M&A, or debt equity

Given your background with K&E, they’re the place to start for a corporate job. Being t14 helps, but its not the only route to biglaw. They love JDs with MBAs, so your finance background should help.

For salary info: this app’s biglaw bowl; BLB; NEP and generally just keeping your ear to the street

thank you! vey helpful!

I think your chances of getting into these fields are not very high, provided that you don’t go to a T1 law school. Do you have some kind of science background? If so, BigLaw might become a possibility. The masters itself may not be so helpful, but your work experience can be.

Thanks for the insight!

I’ve a question. If you’re working on a yearly salary, do you get paid for 23 business days for the month with 31 days? As in, last month august had 31 days and 23 business days and if I get paid 7 hours a day, I should get paid 23*7=161 hours for the month. But I got paid only 22*7=154 hours which is 22 business days. I asked our head and she said I am on a yearly salary so shouldn’t worry about how many ours I get paid for because my salary is fixed for every month - annual package/12.
