Welcome to the Show

For students
The Law School Show is recorded by law students, for law students. After eight seasons, we continue to uncover, unlock, and unleash the power of information for the benefit of your legal career.
In 2014, we recognized a problem. Law students lacked access to key career-shaping information. Information about what it means to practice law in different areas. Insights into recruitment processes, the bar exam, and the licensing process. Perspectives on every piece of the law school experience that have shaped our professional lives.
Our solution was The Law School Show, a free, discussion-based podcast available at the click of a button.
Now an award-winning project, we talk to legal professionals to reveal the secrets of their success, the mistakes they made along the way, and their unique personal advice for you. We also talk to students and professors to find out what works and what doesn’t, give you tips for success during your time at law school, and help you make informed decisions about your future career.
The Person Behind the Resume
Our flagship series. The Person Behind the Resume is our primary format for learning about the careers of a variety of legal professionals. From sharing their stories, their struggles, and their successes, we give our listeners tangible tips and more abstract inspiration for carving their own paths.
Recruitment Insider
The series that started it all. Our Recruitment Insider series focuses on targeted tips for the biggest points of the recruitment process. Advice from career counsellors on preparing application materials, interview tips from current recruiters, and post-recruitment feedback from students — we pull back the mystery from structured recruitment and give you the information you need to succeed.
Student Life Series
One of our newest series, the Student Life Series focuses on the current student experience. From study tips, to advice on online courses in the midst of COVID-19, to how to balance extracurriculars with a busy schedule, we have a ton of content lined up to help you make the most of law school.
