[quote=Anonymous]I have a couple thoughts. First, CIA, JAG and FBI (agent and analyst) are all hiring. Particularly if you have any international experience. Second, the trade associations, but more importantly the small D.C. shops that represent smaller trade associations. These firms are small (fewer than 15 lawyers) but profitable and always busy. They frequently are panelists for ASAE, so look there for names. They go through lots of associates. The work isn't bad or grueling, just not glamorous and people move on quickly. I met a young woman recently who had been in the same boat. She got a job at a title insurance company and 2 years of that she started her own firm doing real estate closing. She got her first business from going to real estate agent's events and open houses (first one in in the morning). 3 years later she has a thriving little practice with 2 full-time associates. Not glamorous, but she does take in a fair amount of cash. [/quote]
