In this episode of the 7Sage Podcast, ZeSean (Columbia Law) and Nicole (Berkeley Law) continue their 1L series with a deep dive into BigLaw recruiting. From networking receptions and free mozzarella sticks to screeners, callbacks, and the anxiety of grade-contingent offers, they walk through what recruiting really looks like during an accelerated 1L fall timeline.

They talk about figuring out practice areas before you even know what you want to do with your life, vibing with litigators versus corporate attorneys, how to approach networking events without being “that person,” and what firms are actually looking for in interviews.

Whether you’re planning on BigLaw, public interest, or still have no idea, this episode offers an honest look at how recruiting works today and how to navigate it without losing your mind.

Next up: finals.
