Facing Big-Firm Rejection

Most law students will be rejected by at least one large law firm during their job search, predicts humor columnist The Snark, who says the proper handling of rejection is important to both the law students being rejected as well as to the big firm doing the rejecting. After all, law students will want to avoid any actions that prevent future employment, and law firms will want to avoid the wrath of those cast aside. Because chances are high that in a few years both sides will be back in the lateral market.
