Big Law Energy: A Law Student's Guide to Landing That 2L Summer Associate Offer So you made it to law school. Congrats! Now welcome to the actual Hunger Games: On-Campus Interviews (OCI). You're expected to smile, network, pitch yourself like a Shark Tank contestant, and somehow remember the difference between M&A and IP, all while still figuring out how to outline for Contracts. No pressure, right? This book is your cheat code. Written by Elsie Arisa, a seasoned attorney, top 20 law school grad, and current Director of Legal Recruiting & Professional Development (a.k.a. the person behind the curtain deciding who gets an offer and who gets ghosted), this guide takes you behind the scenes of Big Law hiring with brutal honesty, actionable tips, and just enough humor to keep you from crying into your casebooks. From resume real talk and how to not bomb your screener, to surviving callback chaos, picking the right firm, and dodging recruiter red flags, Big Law Energy walks you through the whole OCI process like a wise (and slightly over-caffeinated) big sibling. You'll learn:· How to actually get interviews (even if your GPA isn't Law Review material)· What law firms are really looking for and how to match their energy· What to say, what to wear, and how to recover if you say something weird· How to pick the right firm for you, not just the firm with highest ranking· What to do if things don't go as planned (spoiler: you're still going to be fine)· And how to own your story, show your personality, and still get that offer Whether you're gunning for Big Law, praying you survive OCI, or just trying to understand how the system works, this is the unfiltered guide you didn't know you needed.
