Although there is a huge gap between the private sector and public interest salaries,public interest jobs offer a number of key advantages over private practice.

Law students,new lawyers,paralegals,and other legal professionals can gain valuable work experience through internships in the public interest sector work in law school.Such experience is important at a time when jobs are scarce.Many employers do not have the time or resources to train new attorneys(律师)and legal personnel.Since small firms want to hire candidates who can hit the ground running,and large firms often funnel substantive legal work to experienced associates, working in the public interest sector can help you gain the work experience you need.Public interest work is a great stepping stone to private practice and employers appreciate devotion to public service.

Public interest jobs typically offer a better work-life balance than law firm jobs.Nine-tofive work days,flexible schedules,and part-time opportunities are common in the public interest sector.Unlike private practice,individuals employed in non-profits,the government,and legal service organizations are not under pressure to work long hours,gain face-time with partners,or spend free time on client development activities.The work culture is often more relaxed because the focus is on service rather than profit.

Lawyers have an ethical obligation to provide public service and give back to the community.This duty also extends to some other legal professionals,such as paralegals.Many law firms and legal organizations recognize and honor lawyers and legal professionals who have demonstrated leadership in their com-munity.

Hiring managers also appreciate devotion to pro bono and public service work. Therefore,this type of work experience can be a résumébooster.
