12 YOE & seeking first in-house role. Apps have been mostly ignored with a few interviews. Company is finally showing interest - 3000 employees, small legal team, I’d be the 3rd atty. I asked around this company and haven’t heard great things.

Is it better to get into an in-house role (ANY in-house role) and then try to lateral somewhere else, or just wait for a better opportunity? Worried w my YOE it’ll be hard for me to find the right fit, and that having some in-house experience will help.

Just had an interview for UI position this was just a phone screening, the recruiter asked about me and if I had work with product design. They were aware I transitioned industry’s and came out of boot camp no prior professional experience beside personal or private client projects. They let me know they will not move forward. I feel a bit annoyed bc the recruiter first rescheduled and then didn’t properly view my application I am assuming.

I spent about 4 years split between commercial lit and some employment. Now been at a large L&E firm almost a year. Have always had my eye on an in-house L&E position. Do you think 5 years is too early to apply for one (particularly given I really only have like 2-3 years experience in employment given my initial commercial lit work)?

Hi all! Is anyone here in Underwriting? Just want some thoughts on this as i’ve recently gotten an offer for an Underwriting Associate position and have never done any salary negotiations before. Does it seem unrealistic for my counter offer to be 12k more than the original offer? Considering that the original offer is roughly 8k less than the market salary. Plus i’m also accounting for wiggle room as i’m not expecting them to actually agree with the full 12k counter offer

I’m sending an email to female partner in a leadership position (never met) to set up a meeting to introduce myself. My plan is to send her a short email, giving some background about myself and let her know I want to connect to introduce myself. During the meeting, I plan to discuss my key projects, ask about her vision and how I can help her/which initiatives could participate. I’m up for Sr Mgr promotion and making a good impression is critical. Any tips? anything else I should prep?

New here. I am an IT/Technical PM with CSM. Does anyone know of an open PM or Scrum Master position in Atlanta GA or EST time?

I am a Product Owner with 4+ YOE. I have been in my current role for 4 months and have continuously found that this role and company are not the right fit for me. Looking back on everything they said during the interview process it turns out that the culture, product and role are not aligning with anything we discussed. They have added on responsibilities and I have continuously expressed to my direct manager how I feel.

Pursuing a transition to Data Science over the course of the next 2 years from Data Analyst. There are plenty of great resources for learning the technical side, but there seems to be less focus on necessary math/stats curriculum that would be helpful. Do any fish have recommendations on topics worth exploring or good resources?

Any strong feelings against going in-house in a junior corporate counsel role? I am currently interviewing at Assurance IQ and Smartsheet, and I'm excited about them both.

FWIW, I'm at a boutique law firm, and while there is still lots of learning I could do, I don't think the niche is a good fit, and all signs are telling me to leave. I'm a 2019 grad, did a year-long state clerkship, and have been at this firm for just under 1.5 years.

Lately, there has been a lot of “shopping around” by business units for the legal advice they want to hear. One has now gone over my head twice to the GC to get a legal “okay” that I advised against. “Tattling” on me first saying “no.” These power plays are really frustrating. We have a culture of “getting the client to YES,” but it’s hard for me to do that when I know the “yes” will bring certain liability to us. Is there an effective strategy to succeeding in this type of atmosphere?

I got the job! I moved from litigation to a non litigation in-house role. I’m excited but also terrified. Any advice??? 🙏🏻

Hi All. I am a little confused what the rule is for practicing as a remote in-house counsel. For example, if my employer’s corporate office is based in Texas, but I live in Florida and work from Florida, do I have to register as in-house counsel in both states or either states. I appreciate any insights. Thanks.
