This is the fourth in a series of visualizations on legal employment outcomes for the Class of 2019. Following posts on outcomes in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Texas, here is a visualization for legal employment outcomes of graduates of Illinois law schools for the Class of 2019. (More about the methodology is available at the Pennsylvania post.) Last year's Illinois post is here.

The market appears to be flat to slightly declining for Illinois law schools, in contrast to other states so far. Graduates fell from 1696 to 1604, and placement in bar passage-required jobs was essentially unchanged from 1162 positions to 1158. But J.D.-advantage placement and law school-funded jobs dropped off a bit, for a slight overall placement rate improvement from 82% to 84%.
