[CA] Are there any certificates a law student can pursue to improve their hire-ability?

Answer 1

E-filing, Westlaw and Lexis-Nexis certificates are helpful, but internship "real work" experience is better. You might want to volunteer at your local bar association and become a member as well. The local bar typically has seminars with certificates as well. There's also the federal bar you may wish to join. Law students are typically allowed to be members. There's also Legal Aid and many other places where you might want to volunteer your time and it looks great on your resume and you meet people in your field as well.
