More data on "J.D. advantage" jobs

Earlier I blogged about J.D. advantage jobs and evaluating whether they were "quality" employment outcomes. My colleague Rob Anderson at WITNESSETH has sifted through the employment categories here, with interesting results. He conducts a "principal components analysis" that shows that full-time, long-term, J.D. advantage positions are correlated with worse employment outcomes. The first part of his analysis promises more to come!
