    The job market for new law school graduates has improved considerably since the collapse in 2009.  Or has it?  Big Law starting associate salaries jumped to $180,000 in 2016, yet as the New York Times has been quick to remind the world, many students from many law schools still struggle to find legal work following graduation.  In this session three experts on the entry-level legal employment market will provide a thorough update on the current state of the job market for new law school graduates, including an analysis of the most recent ABA and NALP data from the graduating class of 2015.
