Welcome to the Law School Toolbox podcast. Today, we’re talking with ex-BigLaw recruiter, Sadie Jones, about the process of getting, or not getting, an offer at the end of your time as a summer associate. Tune in for some great information on how to end your summer successfully and navigate the offer process thoughtfully and respectfully.
In this episode we discuss:

- Things to do to make sure you end the summer on a positive note

- What you can do if you sense a potential issue (a personality conflict, a not-so-great performance on an assignment, etc.)
- Cold offers: what does this mean and how can you move forward?
- Managing offers while applying for clerkships
- What are the repercussions of turning down an offer if you weren’t happy at the firm?
