1st year associate (NY) thinking about lateraling into a large insurance defense firm from Municipal work/L&E, pay jump 75 to 125 and hybrid as opposed to fully in office. Basically is the pay jump/hybrid worth giving up current practice area to ID? If it turns out I hate ID, thoughts on leveraging the litigation experience and substantive knowledge of L&E to then lateral again within 2 years?

Anyone else self-diagnose ADHD? I’m an over thinker — I analyze things way too much especially my mental health. I’ve seen firsthand the hallmarks/symptoms of ADHD through my friends and could 100% say I have the same problems too (lack of focus, hyperfocus, time management concerns, can’t quit nicotine/caffeine, forgetfulness, impulsiveness). I consider myself a high-achieving/high performer though, unlike my friends who can’t function without adderall...

I had an interview today and interviewer asked me if I had an offer and I said yes then she asked why are you not accepting that.

What should I do I don't want to loose this opportunity.

US immigration question. Green card interview date was cancelled in March 2020. It’s been a whole year of just waiting for a reschedule date, so the I-485 is transferable (e.g. to another state, another employer). Has anyone transferred their i-485 to another employer? What was that process like? Would my process start from the interview phase? How did you prove that the next job was in the same category? Please mention if you did the process before or during the pandemic. Thanks so much.

Hi I have 5+ yrs of bedside clinical research nurse experience and have been trying to pivot to the CRO world. I have applied to over 40+ positions and keep getting rejected. I have reformatted my resume to ATS but that doesn’t seem to be working either. Why is it so hard to get into the CRO industry and why is my hospital experience not translating? Thanks

For large complex projects that require specific screens for every user story in Jira, how do you juggle responsive design?

My initial approach was to get approval for the desktop screens, before creating screens for tablet and mobile, to prevent rework.

However, the time is now coming to design 80+ screens for tablet and mobile, and the stress is starting to increase.

What’s the best way to design for desktop, tablet, and mobile in a two week agile sprints with usability testing?

I don't think I have ever felt so stupid before. My firm recently hired someone who was barred in 2021. I was barred 2019. I took it as I was senior to him and tried to mentor him. Well the joke is on me. Because he worked for the govt for some years before becoming an attorney, they made him a SENIOR associate. He has 0 prior attorney experience. Yet he's a senior. I have no words.

What constitutes cause (as opposed to gross misconduct under Federal standard)?

At what point do damages stop accruing in a dec action? My client already remedied the harm and the litigious Plaintiff continues on his journey to trial racking up legal fees.

Is it normal for a recruiter to want to know word for word how your interview went? For context I have had a few interviews with this recruiter where I was first to interview and made the final round but didn’t get an offer. I am now concerned that the recruiter sends me first then uses my feedback to better prepare other candidates... I don’t feel like I can trust the recruiter...

Client confidentiality question:
I do UHNW luxury good transactions. About a year ago we represented buyer and seller on a deal. Deal fell apart because the buyer was shady and actively trying to engage in illegal acts. Buyer reached out asking us to represent them in a new purchase attempt, we declined.

I feel like I’m the only one in my office that really understands what’s going on. I live downtown in a major city and saw the extreme violence out my window. My office got vandalized and nobody in my office really seemed to understand. I felt like they were all looking at me like I was overreacting because I did not go into the office today even though we’re all back open. Does anyone else feel this way? How can we get my office to understand?
