- bradleyjg 10y agoThat's not a great example. There's a six week bar exam course that most law graduates take because law school doesn't do anything to prepare students for the bar exam. Take any reasonably intelligent person with strong written English skills, have him take one of these six week courses including doing all the homework, and he'd likely be able to pass the bar. Practicing law is a different story. Although a significant percentage of law school has very little relevance to the day to day practice of law it would be an exaggeration to claim that law school doesn't do anything to prepare you for practice as I claimed for the bar exam.

- tgoldenberg 10y agoExcept I never approached Google. They approached me. They sent me an email with a header that said "You are app-solutely fabulous." (I know, so dorky it's suspicious) Do you think it's arrogant, disrespectful or crazy for me to take on the challenge head on? I learned a great deal from the process and I'm certainly not forbidden from interviewing again in the future. But this is just my approach to things.
