Job Bank

The Dallas Chapter ALA Job Bank (DCJB) has been created to place prospective employers in touch with legal administrators seeking employment. Potential candidates and employers may contact the Job Bank Chair for more information.

To ensure that there is no discrimination, resumes in the DCJB are disseminated to any firm making a request. However, the DCJB will take steps to prevent an applicant's resume from being sent to the applicant's current employer.

 

Resumes will not be provided to organizations other than law firms, and in no event will a résumé be provided to entities considered to be vendors, including management consultants, and search firms.

Applicants who wish to participate in the Job Bank should submit an electronic resume (Word format) to the Job Bank Chair.
