commonsaychelParticipantHow does one approach this? he/she get a life and a job and would not be fixated with such stuff.
commonsaychelParticipantI think the the employer have relaxed the standards somewhat, but to get somewhere you need a genuine BA/BS for the most part, these days fairly easy to obtain with remote learning and all.

commonsaychelParticipant@imamhappy, the main differnce is that I am there now, not talking about third hand info, It was my college degree from a major school [that i got with 30 cedits] that opened up the first few doors for me

What neighborhood in NYC do you hear Hebrew spoken as the predominate lang,?
yet to come across onecommonsaychelParticipant@Iamhappy, first of all welcome to the CR,
Having worked most of my life in coperate america, I can tell you a BTL is worth almost nothing, to be taken as a serious candidate you need a BA/BS from a real school not Belluve College, Thomas Edison etc.
Second, the BTL and a great LSAT score will only open doors in a lower or mid range school like NY or Brooklyn Law, Hofstra, Pace etc, it wont open doors to any ivy league places
Third, the good intership are very hard to come by, unless your ethnic is unrepresented in the firm good luck in landing one.
Fourth, other then bypassing the Law Schools requirement of a BA or for use in the special needs population mid level staffing, I dont know what useful purpose it serves.
commonsaychelParticipant@RW. actualy yes, I see that all the time esp. in Antwerp, London and Montreal and pretty common in Monsey, the Catskills and Miami.

commonsaychelParticipantThe conspect of the RY being the yeshivisher equivlent to a chasidisher rebbe is a new conspect, like the past 30/40 years, prior to that people didnt travel to them in drove, they didnt take kivlach, they once asked a rosh yeshiva about a medical procedure and he answered gaay fraig ah doctor, they certainly didnt feer tish or cut hair of a three year old.
commonsaychelParticipant@shimon, according to your post, you live in Northern Israel so minyan should not be an issue for you, there are over 40 temp minyanim posted in godaven, and 100s more the dont, with a little advance planning davening should not be an issue, in fact I daven viskin on the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia watching the sun rise over the Atlantic and the sunset over the Pacific on the Santa Monica Pier.
