Winter Break is a wonderful time to rest, relax, and recover from finals. It is also a great time to try some networking to move forward your career development and job search strategy. Fortunately, some employers host events during the Winter Break timeframe that are designed to introduce law students (usually first-year law students and/or diverse law students) to their work and attorneys.
