Every workplace will differ, but I recommend learning how to distinguish between legal and policy (or political) issues and try to stay out of the latter.

I like this a lot did work in local government before but my first job was kind of a shitshow and involvement in politics is something I hated about it

I don’t know how much background you have in your new area but I am a young local government attorney (almost 2 years soon). I work on a variety of matters (some litigation, some transactional). Local government was brand new to me when I came in and a lot of the areas of law I assist with also were. My main piece of advice for myself and now others I meet in the same boat is to “get comfortable with being uncomfortable.” You may get the wonkiest of issues to research. That is why you’re there. You won’t know a lot at first and it will take some time to get your bearings, but you will get to a point where when a staff member poses an issue, you will have a good starting point of where to look (statute, code, policy) to give well-rounded advice (even if an issue of first impression for your locality). The other piece of advice I recommend is to network with surrounding localities and others in your state. It’s helpful to call someone up when you’re boggled with an issue to see if they’ve dealt with it before (so you don’t reinvent the wheel).
Lastly, join your state bar’s local government section, which may publish articles or have CLEs you can brush up on for particular issues that may have recently been hot-button topics to give you some background as to where the law is for a particular subject matter.

Hello fishes.
I'm a fresher and I recently joined one of the big4 as a senior analyst.
I am given sap as my competency, but honestly I'm not finding it interesting. I was hoping to shift to data analytics(python, sql, etl, powerbi, advanced excel... Working with these techs).
I have knowledge in python and sql. I also have some development skills, reactjs and stuff(not relevant to data analytics).
Should I increase my skill set before starting to apply to other firms?
Continued in comments..

For CFB fans who don't get / don't want cable, the Hulu live TV set up is awesome. They have a central hub where it goes directly to games, no channel surfing trying to figure out where FS1 is.

Is there a way of bypassing the H1B lottery? I was told by an external recruiter that if I joined their London team, after a year I could go through H1B process without the lottery. My preference is to remain with Deloitte and transfer - can Deloitte put me through without the lottery? Are there stipulations such as minimum tenure or degree types etc?

I am fairly new to LGL (10 months in). I had been practicing criminal law before. I really like LGL because I get to work on something new every day and most of the questions posed to me require creative thinking/solutions. But I do find myself feeling discouraged many days bc there is just so much I don’t know. I understand things will get better and may come easier to me with time and experience. How long did it take for you to feel comfortable and feel like you have a handle on most issues?
