I. Employment prospects

Generally speaking, the employment prospect of law major is good, and the employment salary is not low, but in recent years, the employment pressure is also relatively large, especially in first-and second-tier cities. Wage is directly linked to personal ability, and income is polarized. For fresh graduates, if they can persist in working in this industry for several years and accumulate some experience and working methods, the general income is not bad.

Second, the employment direction.

Law major was once recognized as a good major holding an "iron rice bowl". However, with the saturation of public security organs, the expansion of law majors, the surge in the number of law graduates, and the employment of law suffered successive ice ages. This phenomenon exists not only among ordinary undergraduates, but also among graduates from some well-known law schools.

The employment situation of master of law is usually better than that of undergraduate law students. It can be predicted that with the gradual improvement of the degree of legalization in China, the gradual improvement of the legal environment and the rising legal awareness of people, the future development potential of this major is enormous. As far as the major and occupation of law itself are concerned, its characteristics determine that it is very difficult to learn, the career growth period is very slow, the return cannot be realized immediately, the entry threshold is very high, and the cost is very high.

1. Civil servant's direction: the job is relatively stable, the benefits are good, and the salary is low. The average civil servant's monthly salary is about 6000 yuan;

2. Lawyer's direction: the entry threshold is high and you need to take the judicial examination. After obtaining the qualification, you can choose to be a lawyer. The industry requires very high personal ability, network resources and knowledge, and the growth period is very long. At present, the employment situation in relatively developed cities such as East China and Guangdong is good, with an average annual salary of more than 654.38+ 10,000.

3. Corporate legal direction: Corporate legal affairs cover a wide range, generally including non-litigation legal assistants, corporate legal consultants, legal compliance officers, risk control administrators, financial collection, performance auditors, personnel administrative legal direction, personnel legal training, etc.

Taking ordinary companies in Shanghai as an example, the salary of legal assistants generally hovers between 4000- 12000 yuan, and most corporate legal consultants are lawyers of law firms, with an annual salary ranging from 500,000 yuan to 200,000 yuan. Legal compliance officers are common in financial companies, and the salary of formal employees in this position is between 6000- 10000;

4. Teachers in universities or training institutions: Under normal circumstances, LLM wants to be a teacher in universities, but at present, the entry threshold for university teaching is relatively high, and generally requires a doctoral degree. In addition, major training institutions, such as judicial examination and other training institutions, also need a large number of master of law, master of law to join, the monthly salary is generally more than 5000 yuan.
