Wife is looking for a job as a paralegal in the Wash. DC area. Been nearly a year now, a few nibbles but no bites. She has a MS in criminal justice, I don’t know what the issue is.

I’m sorry to hear that.
Well maybe your wife can surf the links above.
Maybe there will be a bite or two.

There are tons of Non-profits in DC & VA - who may need paralegals...GWSAE (Greater Washington Ass'n of Association Execs) has a job posting, at least they used to.

Network, attend receptions, parties, DC Bar functions, voluntary bar, Court stuff. Even though unemployment is "low" in DC, in a tough economy it's more, not less, of "who you know."

There's the temp-to-permanent route, too.

Just thinking out loud. All the best to your wife andyou.

Does she have a clearance? If she doesn’t then that is the issue.
