[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For lawyers, they are DOJ jobs. [/quote] Lateral attorneys at DOJ with only a few years experience easily make six figure salaries. Based on recent numbers I saw in a job listing for the Civil Rights Division, with only four years experience, a newly hired lateral attorney at DOJ could have a starting salary of $120k. Does this really count as "low-paying"? Even if it's a lot less than a big-firm lawyer would make, those lawyers are already the exception rather than the rule in the legal profession.[/quote] Yes. That really does count as low-paying when considered in context. The comparison point is not a sales clerk at Foot Locker or a 4th year preschool teacher. It's another Yale---->ColumbiaHarvardStanfordCalBerkley 4th year associate (aka, your former classmate) working in Washington, D.C. at a firm or elsewhere in the private sector. [/quote]
