What is the employment outlook for black females interested in practicing employment law?
This is just my own opinion from being in the business world for 25 years. I think your prospects would be very good in employment law. First of all, as a black female, you cover two categories of diversity that employers often need to cover. Secondly, and unfortunately, since a lot of employment litigation involves discrimination suits, you may find that clients prefer working with someone who has a minotiry perspective. On the other side of that table, if you decide to go into corporate law, then a corporation is always smart to bring a minority attorney to the table in a discrimination lawsuit.





So, again just my humble opinion, I think there are a lot of forces that would support your career choice!

Your colour shouldn't change a thing.

Reply:should it really matter the colour of your skin. The employment outlook will all really depend on your education, experience and motivation etc. not race
Reply:Why would being a black female matter? Federal law under EEOC says that employers can't legally discriminate based on race or sex, so I'm confused why you would think it would matter?
