Professional Development

There's a lot of discussion in the legal community about the shape and contours of legal education. One thing that isn't going to change with the economy is this: the need for professional development. So what have you done for your career lately? Attended a bar association meeting? Written a journal article? Conducted some mock or informational interviews? How about meeting with your career adviser? There's so much out there that you can do, and this is just the beginning of your long career, so getting in the habit of finding ways to continually reach out and improve yourself, your image, your network, and build your brand will serve you well for the rest of your career, no matter where it may take you.
