Officially I do not actually care about your LSAT score, I just realized that LSAT was one of the letter combinations that came up in the pasta, and I did not recognize it until this morning.

I am interested in seeing a copy of your CV. I realize you are currently doing legal research and assisting Laurie with physical therapy - I do not intend to ask you to interrupt the second, but if you are interested in a more interesting role, I may have some options.

Not necessarily for Snow Valley, but that could be one of them.

Unofficially, I am glad you don't care about my LSAT score. It got me into school and I never have to take it again, and that's all it's useful for.

My CV is attached and current. If you have options, I am definitely interested. Legal research is nice, but I don't really get to stretch my other skills.

What does Snow Valley do, exactly? I know it's a think tank, but it doesn't generate the sort of content that you really dig into during political or law studies.

To be frank, the only thing I know about the LSAT besides that is it very difficult is that Elle Woods scored higher than Barack Obama. I have never had to pretend to be a lawyer, or a law student.

On our paperwork, Snow Valley is a think tank that works in political, legal and community measures to better support the genetically gifted population. We contact politicians and business owners, we work on legal measures to prevent anti-mutant laws, we conduct research into how governments and corporations are addressing ethical research.

Informally, while we do a great deal of that, most of us are also working more as an intelligence and espionage team - not unlike . When some of us joke that we are spies, while it is not a fully accurate description of what we do, it is also not incorrect.

This sounds like a fairly dream venn diagram of "Things I have a degree in (political science, law, communication)," "Things I learned outside of school, (data analysis, hacking, research)" and "Things I have personal experience with (genetics)." It sounds like there's a catch, and I'm guessing it's the spies part. What flavor are we talking? CIA? SHIELD?

I'm still interested, but I'd like to go into any interview process with actual notions, not preconceived ones based off my interactions with those fuckers at SHIELD, honestly.

Yes, the catch is that we do spy work. More CIA - actually, Kevin (I believe you called him suit guy?) is formerly of the CIA than SHIELD - SHIELD is a little too mired in a larger agenda that I do not agree with and is too bureaucratic.

The other catch is that - do you remember the fish incident? A significant number of times, if we are in the field, it is because Weird Things are happening. Evil Squids, Computer Made of Meat in Russia, Nazi Bees. It is not always a fun job, or a good job, but it is an important job.

It may actually be better if I am not the one to interview you though. I am reliably told I am too aquisitional about people and skills. Plus walking into Kevin's office and throwing a resume at him is funny.

CIA and "weird shit" spy work is not a deal breaker since I assumed we had some sort of intelligence network. I'd like to do something useful with my time outside of being Laurie's extra hands (although that is pretty high priority right now). If it can do something important, that's even better.

I'm definitely interested. If you think my skillset brings something to the table that will enhance your work, throw my CV at Mr. Tall & Tailored. Take a picture if you do it literally.
