Business Development Jobs Make Good Law Degree Careers

https://jdcareersoutthere.com/alterna... Business development jobs make popular alternative careers for lawyers due to the overlapping skill sets that are required. Law grads looking for alternative jobs to do with a law degree might want to consider the business development path.

We explore biz dev jobs in this JDCOT interview with Cathy Kim, who made a career change to become a business development executive at a start-up renewable energy company after leaving law and her position as a BigLaw senior litigation associate.

Cathy tells JD Careers Out There host Marc Luber that doing business development at a start-up is exciting because she gets to wear a variety of hats each day - from customer service to flexing her negotiation skills to financial modeling and handling issues of land use law.

Although going to law school and getting a law degree isn't necessary to do business development jobs, it is common to find attorneys in these roles. Whether you're in law school or wondering what to do with a law degree, check out JDCOT to hear more about this path and discover a wide variety of other alternative jobs to do with a law degree. In the full interview at JDCOT, Cathy tells us how to break in to business development jobs and explains a typical day, what skills and personality types best fit this path, and how to succeed.
