The Super Lawyers Blog featured Chapman Law 2010 alumnus, Atticus Wegman, discussing how he landed a great job right out of law school despite a very tough job market. Wegman is currently a civil litigation attorney at Aitken*Aitken*Cohn, one of nation’s top personal injury firms. Wegman started at the firm as a 2L law clerk, and continued throughout that summer and into his final year.  His advice to students is: “Get in and make as many personal connections as you can.”  Wegman landed this plum position, even though, as he noted, “The first words out of the interviewer’s mouth were, ‘We’re not looking for any permanent position here; it’s a temporary law-clerk position.'”  Persistence and hard work, it seems, are a winning combination for success when jobs are scarce.
