加拿大法学院JD申请，学习+找工作经验答疑帖

Winston_CaiUID：4016610

allo CanadianJDlawyer, this is Winston, I'm currently studying at UBC, learning French for my BA.

I'm Canadian and I'm not sure whether to take co-op for a whole year in the coming semester coz this would delay my graduation. I choose to do coop for the reason that I heard the job finding is currently super challenging, while coop may give me a priority ticket.

Can you share with us your experience in finding for your job offers? Do you think a coop is helpful for job hunting as a JD or it is just optional or it is not a must?

Thanks for sharing. Eng/CHN at your convenience. Arigadooo

Hi Winston,
I think any work experience is helpful for your job searching once you get into law s ...

Hi Canadian JD lawyer,

Tout d'abord, merci beaucoup pour votre patience et votre merveilleux partage. Ça sera très utilise pour moi.

Your opinion on the necessity of coop makes great sense to me. Maybe we can call this the 'diminishing marginal utility of work experience'? LOL Yea it's very important for my study plan in the following 2 years.

Also you mentioned the importance of 1L grades, definitely a good reminder. What I'm trying to practice is to increase my reading speed intentionally (although the readings of the courses have been more than enough).

Anyways, wish you a happy term (finals) in the following months. Will keep an eye on your further updates. Thank you once again, bro.
