T-14 or not T-14? Is That Even the Question?

People go to great lengths to get into elite law schools, but is
it worth it? On this week’s episode, Jelena and Branden sit down
with Evan Parker, Ph.D., founding partner of Parker Analytics to
answer that very question.


But the answer—and there is indeed an answer—is really only the
starting point of a deeper conversation about hiring practices in
the legal field, including how things are changing, how they
ought to change further, and how future lawyers can use Dr.
Parker’s hard-won insights to increase their chances of landing a
great law firm job.


In this episode, you’ll hear:
How law firms decide whom to hire, as well as how to use that
information to your advantage as an applicant How diversity at a
law firm results in increased profitability Why law firms hire data
scientists like Dr. Parker What steps law firms do and don’t take
to correct their hiring practices Which characteristics in a law
firm hiree are predictive of success, and which aren’t What Malcolm
Gladwell thinks about the LSAT

Thanks to Dr. Evan Parker for joining us to share his knowledge
and expertise!
