A practical, no-nonsense primer filled with “hot tips,” checklists, and sample forms, this book offers a treasure chest of valuable advice on how to join the fast-growing paralegal profession. Differing from most other authors in the field, who concentrate on the knowledge and skills needed by a paralegal, Wagner assumes the reader is qualified for a legal assistant position, although she includes a short chapter on paralegal schools. Her focus is on how to find, interview for, and be hired for that position. Thus, she offers detailed reviews on “crafting winning resumes,” writing strong cover letters, employing effective job search strategies, and “selling yourself” through the interview process. The list of “questions to ask the interviewer” and suggestions for answering difficult or inappropriate questions are especially helpful. Appendixes list paralegal schools and associations nationwide. Highly recommended for most public libraries.
