/biz/ I'm 20 y.o., 3rd year of law undergrad, just found my first internship in a small law firm.
The managing partner told me that I will be one of the courier boys, but ""if I show proficiency"" I might work on cases.
So did he just doomed me to no-pay mailboy job?
Is the first interview supposed to be a ""reality check"" to brush off some people?
pls halp I'm alone in this one
You will never work as a lawyer straight out of uni. You will always be in a weird helper/trainee type position.
Im not 100% but dont you need to work for a law firm (as a helper or someshit) until you pass the legal lawyer exams?

yes

takes a while. law market isn't great for financial gain right now. very oversupplied. lots of "paralegals" making 30 - 50k a year, if even that.
Show that you're worth their effort and everything will come. Thats how you grow your carreer.

I'm just quite impressed how tough the interview was. Does it apply to all new people who are straight out of college?
like
>we won't pay u shit bro u gonna bust yo ass and basically you are fucking stupid

Do more than expected of you.
Find a new client, improve office efficiency, show up early and stay late. Ask if anything needs doing before you leave for the day.
No of the other young shitbirds you'll be competing against will do those things because they want to chase pussy and get drunk.
