Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we’re talking with ex-BigLaw recruiter, Sadie Jones, about how to make people hate you at work, so that, basically, you can avoid doing these things.
In this episode we discuss:
- Things to avoid, such as being late on your first day of work!
- How to make a good impression at social events (and how to make a bad one)
- Why there is almost no excuse for not showing up or notifying a host that you can’t make an event
- Why treating everyone with respect, always, is so important
- Why you need to treat summer jobs as the start of your professional reputation
- Why first drafts aren’t really drafts
- That it’s your job to make your boss look good
- Why you need to do your homework, and then ask good questions, to avoid surprises
- How important communication is to success at work
- What to do if you do mess up at work
