Did you do any internships? Also consider joining technical groups if you haven’t, a lot of those groups have conferences that connect you with major companies. I was a member of NSBE and SWE for example in college and they had amazing conferences for recruiting. Even after college I ended up going to their conferences to recruit as well with my company

I am a new attorney (one year being barred) and I have no confidence when it comes to taking deposition, mainly because English is not my first language. I was taking a deposition last week and the Corp was kind of making fun of me especially when he asked me “what I am asking is a request or demand” and again “what I am asking is a question or an order” I was stunned and didn’t know what to say!
I just need advise from all experienced attorneys how can I improve my deposition taking skills?
