Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, we have ex-BigLaw recruiter Sadie Jones back with us to discuss how to be authentic in a job interview.

In this episode we discuss:

The pressure to be the perfect candidate
Overcoming insecurities before going into interviews
What you might be asked and how to answer in the following situations:
- You're at a lower-ranked school but have done really well
- You're at a top school but have a few low grades
- You're not the "typical" hire for a particular organization
Emphasizing relevant skills and interests
