Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, we’re speaking with former BigLaw recruiter Sadie Jones about whether it’s feasible to apply for jobs while studying for the bar exam. We explore scenarios such as graduates who failed the bar the first time, 3Ls without job offers, and those with job offers contingent on passing the bar.

In this episode we discuss:

The realities of job hunting while studying for the bar
How to handle conversations with potential employers about your bar exam status
Smart alternatives to consider if you need income during bar prep
Tips for positioning yourself for success once you do pass the exam
