What’s your summer been like? Though the summer of 2009 has seen some exciting events, the summer of 2010 is shaping up to be very different, as summer programs are already under siege. Before the summer slips away, and those lucky few of you getting wined and dined are again on a steady diet of Top Ramen and Diet Coke, we want to know what you really throught about your summer associate experience. From the work assignments, to the lunch budgets, to the nightly escapades, we want the scoop!

If you are a 2009 summer associate, please take our short survey - Click Here (of course the survey is completely confidential).

Don’t worry, you’ll get to see the results of this survey on The Career Center, brought to you by Above the Law and Lateral Link . And we’ll have them posted in time to help inform / sway your decisions for fall on-campus recruiting (or perhaps spring, if you are considering Orrick).

After the jump, we’ll reveal which firms we most popular in the month of June… because we know you like to see who is on top.
