"So many law students are looking at Washington or New York. New York has a huge draw with its salary levels. We’re sandwiched between Washington and New York,’’ says Sarah Davies, the hiring partner at Cozen O’Connor.
Davies and other recruiters and hiring partners say that once they get young law students to interview in Philadelphia, the odds improve because the students are then able to sample Philadelphia’s thriving nightlife and cultural scene.
Paul Lantieri, who helps supervise the summer internship program at Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll LLP, says Center City’s revival is persuading more young law students to come here. As a consequence, he says Ballard’s crop of summer interns is geographically more and more diverse.
