I have a really good friend in law school who had a pretty hard time with Covid her first year. She’s now looking for 2L summer jobs and having a hard time finding. Are we able to recommend summers to our hiring managers?

Dude she’s your good friend. Do what you can to see if you can kick her application along far enough to an interview. She’ll need to take it from there.

You should go ahead and refer her although it’s highly unlikely your firm’s summer program has spots. Planning for the summer is well on its way and nearly all firms are prob good on numbers.

For 2L summer, as others have said, she's going to have to look for smaller firms or other kinds of jobs. Big firms will have pretty filled up classes. But you should definitely go to bat for her for any 3L hiring your firm does. There are usually one or two spots that open up.

Yes. We can refer anyone. Who knows how much they care

I wouldn’t recommend someone who isn’t going to meet the firm’s cutoffs. Not sure what her deal is, but if she couldn’t land an SA, not sure if it’s worth it.

Have ber look in-house. Those jobs are posted a out now. And they dont care about GPA as much if hers isn't stellar.

The PE culture is sick. The 20 something VP was rude to our partner because our team took thanksgiving and the day before off and it was in the engagement letter that we were gonna be off. He kept emphasizing that his team did our job while we were on a break. Dude we are not sick like you and we have lives. I see something about how s**t the PE culture is in every deal we support.

Like these sickos make fun of us for working 80+ hours weeks for them and taking thanksgiving off.
