- Co-hosts Tom Blakely and Jim Fiore conduct a wide-ranging interview with alumnus Max Meglio, associate in the M&A and Private Equity group in the Sidley Austin's Boston office, to get his view on landing a job working in private practice. Prior to joining Sidley, Max was a law clerk for the Honorable Justice John Englander of the Massachusetts Appeals Court. He was a Staff Writer and Senior Editor on the BC Law Review at Boston College Law School.
I remember doing lots of on-campus interviews with biglaw firms when I was a 2L at BC Law. I didn't realize it, but my rural western PA (hillbilly) roots were extremely obvious at the time, meaning that I never had a real shot once I got to the second interview stage. Luckily, the U.S. Postal Service didn't care and hired me anyway, which started me on a career path as a federal sector employment law attorney. This was a lucky break for me, although I didn't realize it at the time.
