<p>Another big difference between WS & non-WS jobs is that the federal govt subsidizes WS jobs & there’s a cap on how much you can earn total during the year for WS jobs. Also, many WS jobs are on campus & generally employers with WS jobs are understanding of student schedules, projects, exams, etc. and will schedule around those with students. I only had WS jobs as an undergrad (plus summer jobs, of course) & did not work during law school.</p>
