[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most people doing policy work have a JD.[/quote] ... Because they had to hustle to find a job after they realized they were not getting biglaw. [/quote] +1 This is true. But it seems like work that can be done without a JD, no?[/quote] It absolutely can. The only reason employers get away with paying a JD 60k to work in "policy" is because there is a huge glut of lawyers, especially in DC. There are so many struggling law school graduates that many non-legal openings on the Hill will "prefer" a JD degree. They realize that there is a difference between being overqualified and desperate.[/quote] Yes. This is exactly right[/quote]
