06. Kristi Jobson: Leadership Insights from the Chief Admissions Officer of Harvard Law School
Kristi Jobson is Chief Admissions Officer of Harvard Law School and all-round A+ human being. (We may be a little biased here at HALB. We love Kristi!)
Prior to this role, Kristi was a big law litigator focusing on shareholder actions and complex commercial disputes and did three (3!) clerkships. She is a graduate of both Harvard Law School and Harvard College. Prior to law school, she was a teacher in New York City with Teach For America and she taught dance in Cambridge public schools throughout college.
In this episode, we talk about topics including Kristi’s leadership philosophy, the new initiatives at HLS Admissions that she’s most proud of and “the secret to getting into Harvard Law School.”
(I’m calling it. This episode is totally going viral on Reddit.)
