Melissa A. Peters, Esq. of Princeton Legal Search Group, LLC gives her thoughts on how to deal with legal resume rough spots:
“Everyone wants to have the perfect résumé without a “blip” or blemish. Unfortunately, that is often not the reality. Many have made moves in their careers that they would not have predicted or that did not work out as planned. Some have made several career moves, causing their résumés to look disjointed and raise red flags to potential employers. Tackling questions about these résumé sticking points is necessary and you need to get a handle on how to answer for your past decisions.”
