brian writes "CNN is reporting that the number of people applying to government jobs is up significantly this year. They attibute the increase in the publicity the SEC is getting due to all the corporate scandals, the aftermath of September 11, 2001, and the sluggish (horrible?) economy.

The article can be found here.

I think they significantly underplayed the role the economy is playing. Seems to me the driving force is not necessarily the desire to be a crimefighter, but the desire to be employed, thus increasing the number of places people are applying. As a graduating 3L, it seems that in general the job hunt is a little more tense this year than most. How is it at other schools?"
