Professor Julian Jefferson, who teaches professional responsibility courses, spoke with the NH Bulletin about former Executive Councilor Cinde Warmington and accusations that she was an opioid lobbyist.

Critics of Warmington, the Democratic candidate who launched a campaign challenging Republican Gov. Kelly Ayotte, is facing mounting criticism for promoting OxyContin and defending the pharmaceutical industry.

“Everything that she did, at least looking at it objectively, was completely within the bounds of representing her client,” Jefferson said to the Bulletin. “In fact, she had an obligation to represent her client, to be a zealous advocate for her client within professional norms, to really vigorously pursue her clients’ interests.”

He also states how important it is to avoid relying on artificial intelligence to write your résumé and cover letter, no matter how efficient or tempting the prospect is.
