Any insights into Latham’s finance practice group in Chicago? In a lender-focused practice and thinking of applying. How’s the culture, mentorship and growth opportunities? Does being in Chicago meaningfully curtail advancement (as opposed to being in NYC for example)

Hello all,
I have given interview on 19th Nov 2022 and the same day, I received an email to upload some documents. Can someone tell me how much it would it take to move to the next step in the recruitment?.
The portal shows "Review in progress." Any input on this will be appreciated 🙂

Third year Tech SC up for M this year, what is typical bump that comes with promo? 1-2 rating history (although that is changing now so who knows if it matters)

Can’t relate to my team members because we have almost nothing in common, as in I don’t drink/have any funny drunk stories and don’t keep up with college football

Does anyone here work normal hours with rarely overtime and make 90k-100k range?

If you do billable work on a given PTO/vacation day, do you still count that day as vacation? Or do you get that vacation day "back"? Or do you only get the part that you billed "back"? (Or some other option.)

After leaving BL, what salary do most people settle at or is that way to general of a question?

How many matters is typical for one associate to handle (BL lit)? I know it is group-specific, but just trying to get a general idea. I’m a 2nd year and I am the only associate staffed on about 30 cases-meaning I keep track of all deadlines, do all day to day assignments, keep on top of following up with client/OC, and all research/drafting. Partners handle deps/court but that is about it. Is this a normal case load to be responsible for as a jr? I being dramatic by thinking this is too much?

I’ve recently been promoted and given a few direct reports. I now know their salaries and think they are being under paid. Do I tell them to ask for more money or do I keep it to myself?

Any recommended app for video recording / AI-analytics for golf swing?

Interview questions to expect in a lateral interview? (3rd year/litigation and dispute resolution) I am extremely nervous as it’s my first lateral interview and not sure what to expect.

Anyone know of a resource to locate the history of comments to a section of the restatement, something akin to legislative history for a statute?

Can anyone give me review of appdynamics?

What is the best way to reach out to the attorney in charge of recruitment even when there are no posting available that fit your qualifications — but you still want them to keep you in mind?

Looking to lateral from mid to big law. What’s the best approach for cold applications? Short email and resume? Or pound out a cover letter?

I’m currently a 2nd year associate in commercial finance. I’ve realized I don’t enjoy a a strictly transactional practice. I enjoyed litigation matters as a summer (particularly the adversarial nature). Also, love talking and advising clients. I don’t want the litigation lifestyle and appreciate the in-house opportunities of transactional. Assuming that I could switch (or lateral), I’m thinking I may enjoy employment (and the ability to defend and train/advise). I appreciate any insight.

To the lender counsel that forgot to mention they needed original signature pages for a deal that closed early this year and decided to chase and harass me a day before thanksgiving and a day after thanksgiving multiple times. F*ck you. I don’t know what is driving your lack of courtesy but I have represented the same bank before and know their usual original signature requirement.

This job is a lot better if you don't care about the bonus and hours requirement. I can pretty easily bill 1700 hours annually and my firm so far hasn't cared in the slightest. Worrying about hitting 2000 hours for the bonus used stress me out so much, and I just don't think it's worth it. Base salaries are ridiculous and way more than enough to finance my lifestyle.

Any fellow Georgetown Hoyas alumni wanting to go to John Carroll weekend in Nashville!?

Wondering what does a class of 2019 ip litigation lateral offer look like these days? Guaranteed year end end signing bonus? Anything else? Mainly curious about Southern California but all data points would be helpful

Which practice group in your firm seems the “happiest” and seems to enjoy what they do? M&A appears to be the most miserable at both firms I’ve now been at…

White collar folks - how busy are you guys now?

Last day at my firm and I’m getting chased for ancillaries due in October, lol

How would an attorney working in big law position themselves to become a “super angel” investor?

New to due diligence and not sure the timeline of projects. Tips to stay organized of the project and timeline, and how to update those leading the deal? Just keep track of new info and provide as necessary?

I hate this job. That is all.

People who don’t submit their time daily, how do you remember what you did and for how long? I’ve always just submitted each timer as soon as I finish a task—“call with x re y” really doesn’t take that long even if I’m busy, and if I don’t do it immediately I’ll forget all those little I did in the morning by the time I go to bed. No shade at all to those with different systems, just genuinely curious because I see a lot about catching up at month end on here and I have no idea how that works??
