A new audio file titled Unhappy at Work?  How to Know When to Hold 'em or Fold 'em When it Comes to Your Job or Career is available for immediate download at http://www.legalcareerexpo.com/displaycommon.cfm?an=1&subarticlenbr=332&partner=default.

Below is a brief overview of the program:

Ambivalence about staying in the practice of law or leaving the law is difficult to assess.  Many lawyers who experience dissatisfaction with work are unsure whether they dislike the legal profession generally or whether their specific work place or practice area is creating their dissatisfaction.  Other lawyers dislike the way they have to practice law, with billable hour requirements, long hours and lack of control.  Should you leave the law?  This program is designed to help attorneys who are uncertain about whether to stay or to leave the practice of law learn to ask the right questions to resolve their ambivalence.

You will learn about:

  • Five key factors that predict job satisfaction
  • Why you are unhappy at your current job
  • Five predictors of attorneys who will actually leave the practice of law
  • Whether you should consider moving to a different practice area
  • How to find non legal jobs that are open to lawyers
  • How to predict you will be satisfied at a future job
