I’m thinking about getting into the paralegal career but I’ve heard that the job market is really bad right now due to the recession. But is the paralegal field actually doing worse than other fields?

Justin asked:


Are we in a recession? If I remember correctly from my college economics class there is a precise definition to a recession. Something like multiple quarters without growth.

It seems to me this should be a simple answer. There was either growth for the required time or there was not. Why are some people saying that we are in a recession and some are saying that we are not?

Does anyone know what the definition of a recession is and have the numbers to back it either way?
