Professor Lawsky’s spread sheet of hiring schools and hiring plans: now searchable!
Professor Lawksy (Northwestern) writes:
I keep a spreadsheet each year of law school hiring committees and hiring plans [Noted here–BL]. It’s available through PrawfsBlawg and here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TC_5Vr_pi_28-V0JLCvO7ArIDkopzW2gpXXaU-epFEY/edit#gid=0
I’ve now written a tool that allows people to filter this spreadsheet by subject areas, locations, and entry level vs. lateral and download customized spreadsheets with just their interests:

I hope that this tool will be helpful for everyone who’s on the job market this year (since, to my knowledge, AALS doesn’t provide anything like this for candidates). The information is admittedly incomplete, but right now I am at 80 unique schools, which is something, and I am working on getting information about more schools. Basically, it is just a filtering tool, but some people may find it useful.
What a great resource!
