Thank you to all of our speakers for sharing such valuable insights about making the transition from military to civilian work! #VLCF23

[Veterans' Legal Career Fair @VetsLegalFair]

"Firms often struggle to hire straight from the military, but they know how to hire from clerkships and they know how to hire from the government. So even if that’s not where you want to spend your career, it can help you down the line." - Savin #VLCF23

[Veterans' Legal Career Fair @VetsLegalFair]

The people I spoke to when making my transition kept saying, “We don’t know where to put you.” I had given it some thought and proposed a placement for myself. You need to be able to tell firms where you think you’ll fit in." - Savin #VCLF23

[Veterans' Legal Career Fair @VetsLegalFair]

"A common theme we’ve heard so far is the power of networking. We are all coming from an incredible network of brothers and sisters who have had each other's back on the military side. Now we can have each other’s backs on the civilian side." - @JosephMoreno #VLCF23

[Veterans' Legal Career Fair @VetsLegalFair]

"In the interview, focus on the soft skills you’ve gotten in the military that aren’t necessarily legal skills: strategic thinking, the ability to adapt and overcome, being able to prioritize in ways that are meaningful…all of those are significant." - Gardner #VLCF23

[Veterans' Legal Career Fair @VetsLegalFair]

"We have a lot of skills that firms value; it’s just a matter of making sure you communicate that to the people you’re interviewing with." - Savin #VLCF23
