The candidates who graduated in law in 2010 have faced the worst ever employment scenario in the last 20 years! It is unfortunate that the American Bar Association doesn’t feel obliged to make people know how individual schools fared in the overall full-time legal employment placements. Even if 2010 graduates haven’t found jobs, which we know they haven’t, will ABA be able to hide the fact? ABA is expected to act responsibly and exert itself in making the employment situation known rather than blocking the facts, says ATL’s Staci Zaretsky.

Some of the associates will be starting in January of 2011, with the remainder being deferred until January 2012. Yes, that’s a year and a half after graduation. All associates from the class of 2010 will receive health insurance from the firm beginning in June of 2010 and associates deferred until 2011 will draw a stipend beginning in January of 2010.

Presumably, setting fire to things in the meantime will not help.
