Whoa! Is this for real? Is a second-year student at Cardozo Law School actually advertising himself via text ads on Google, promoting himself as “[a] great choice for Summer Associate”?
Are Cardozo law students truly this desperate? No wonder the career services dean quit to teach yoga. Maybe Cardozo should focus less on teaching students how to walk and more on teaching them how to conduct job searches. Let’s learn more about the young man behind this unusual ad….
If you go to the address in the ad, www.ericeinisman.com, you’re taken to résumé of Eric B. Einisman, a member of the class of 2013 at Cardozo Law. Eric currently has a law school GPA of 3.555, which places him in the top 15 percent of the class. He received a B.A. in political science from the University of Michigan, where he had a GPA of 3.507 and served as Academic Chair of the Michigan Pre-Law Society.
It makes sense that he’s in the top 15 percent, which is a critical point along the curve at Cardozo. If he were in the top 10 percent, he’d probably be bragging about his Biglaw job right about now. In terms of his work experience, Einisman is currently interning at Fisher, Byrialsen & Kreizer PLLC. The four-lawyer firm, with offices in Manhattan and New Jersey, handles civil rights, personal injury, and criminal litigation matters.
Eric Einisman is also the co-president of the Unemployment Action Center at Cardozo. This makes sense as well: when faced with Unemployment, this man takes Action.
