Describe networking and how it might benefit a paralegal seeking employment.?
What will be an ideal response?
Career opportunities often go unpublished. Many firms post notices within their own organizations before publishing them online or in the "Help Wanted" section of a newspaper or periodical. If a paralegal has connections within an organization, he or she may be told that a position is opening up before other candidates are aware that an opportunity exists. More paralegals find employment through networking than through any other means. For paralegals, networking is the process of making personal connections with other paralegals, paralegal instructors, attorneys, and others who are involved in (or who know someone who is involved in) the paralegal or legal profession. Online networking is becoming popular as well. Professional organizations and student internships also offer important networking opportunities.?
