Summary: Order it from Vault.com
Review: This is a great book, but if you need it right away and don't want to pay a special handling fee order it directly from Vault.com. The eBook version is also available there as well as the new 2003 edition that is not available yet in bookstores.

Summary: This Book is a TTT
Review: Vault is just one of many entities that profits from the insecurities of law and pre-law students. Some info one might want from a guide to law firms:
1) Average hours worked.
2) Average length of time to partnership, and other related info.
3) How far into the class a firm will recruit at your law school.
4) What makes firm A different from firm B.
5) Et cetera. None of this info, unfortunately, is contained in this book. Every description is essentially the same, and equally useless: Firm X worked on the following big cases... Associate 1 says the work is great. But, adds associate 2, the hours can sometimes get to you and the partners aren't always friendly. Blah, blah, blah. Save your money. This book is a waste of paper.
