39. Spoiler Alert - Alternative Approaches to Law Jobs

Richard and Adam are joined by Jennah Khaled and Patrick McCaugherty second-year students at Osgoode Hall Law School and returning guests to the show. The group continues their discussion of Research Assistantships and moves into the common topic of creativity. Jennah disparages a number of professions. Richard gets defensive about a reflective journal assignment. When should one try to be creative in law school? When should one refrain?

 

Adam claims that beggars cannot be choosers when it comes to law jobs. Jennah discusses a love for fiction that doesn't mesh with law school at times. She proposes that legal analysis tends to leave behind the human facts underlying the cases. Patrick comments on thinking outside of the box in order to achieve career goals and not falling into the traditional job traps. How do we think strategically in creative ways? Richard talks about "deemed Mondays".
