Anyone changing their careers from law to a recruiter? How's the stress level and prospect?

Soliciting ideas for a big closing lunch with clients - near or close to bryant park, my first pick was Gabriel Kreuther but they only do Thurs/Fri lunches (ours would be Tues). Ideas for upscale restaurants appropriate for corporate clients? They said “anything but steak” ha.

What’s a good salary for BlackRock Financial Tech Implementation Consultant - Associate level?

Hi everyone, I am currently looking at social impact roles aligned with either DEI, social responsibility, or learning/leadership development. I have close to 15 years functional experience in DEI strategy, business strategy, teaching, and coaching. I have my own consulting company that focuses on DEI. I have a masters a MBA and a doctorate. I would love to be able to either connect with someone or be referred to an opportunity around a social impact space. That is where my purpose aligns.

I'm considering switching from Accenture T&O to EY Change Mgmt practice for 150k. Is that a smart move? I'm in Chicago

Anybody could refer me to Deloitte.
I'm happy to refer anyone to EY as well.
Thank you

How much of the work that gets entered/wins at Cannes is real? Seeing criticism of fake work – but doesn’t this happen every year from a whole ton of agencies?

Anyone know if the variable pay is applicable while serving np? I got my last variable pay for oct to March cycle and my lwd is 19th sept... Should I get variable pay for April to sept on my final settlement? Or it will give at least April to June?

Would love to aquire / buy into / help run a small business. Hard worker, spent last 10 yrs in core operations consulting. Would a small business find the skill set valuable?

If anyone could answer this with accuracy, they wouldn’t be on Fishbowl but any guesses on when our 401k balances get back to where they were? Two years, five years? 💰

Hi Guys,
I have multiple offers including offers from TCS.
But the TCS offer is less. So I'm not planning to join. Will the company block me if I do not join.

Any reasonable monthly parking in Midtown?

How did you get better at cooking? I'm a guy - never mastered the skill - but can recognize that only making pasta is probably not ideal.

Does Globant terminates the employment of certain trainees after their probation(3 Months) based on their performance in the training period? Some of the fresher trainees were laid off this morning without giving a notice or reason.

We were told that the probation period is a training period & not an elimination one. It was shocking as a few of those trainees were actually good.

If i submitted both bgv and prejoining formalities, i should join only Cognizant??? If i didn't join they will blacklist me?

Are there any lawyers that moved to healthcare tech (non-legal related positions)? That would include medical devices, AI, robotics, etc. Would love to learn from your experience.

Parents always wanted me to become a doctor, so did I. However, did not do very well around blood. :))

Thank you!

I work with great people. Really can’t say anything bad about my firm in general either. But…I still dislike the entire premise of law firm life, the billable hour, etc.. I’d love to work in a law school setting as a counselor or something but I can’t afford the pay cut. *sigh* Does anyone feel like being a lawyer is just doing homework all day? First world problems I suppose. I’m very thankful to have a job ❤️

Are there recruiters who specialize in or have opportunities in non practicing attorney or jd preferred roles? I don’t want to litigate anymore but I really need help finding a non practicing role. I wonder if there are recruiters who do this.

I need out of the legal field for a job with independence, interesting and challenging issues to solve and a decent amount of pay. Halp!

I am looking to enter big law. I had a clerkship on a state Business Calendar and am a current first year litigation associate where I have prepared for a trial, taken and defended depositions, and have extensive motion writing practice in tech, business, and employment cases. Is it a waste of time to try and make a move to big law with such few years of experience?

One of my junior associates recently resigned and I've been trying to make an exit myself for several months now. The job market has been really competitive but I am getting closer to getting a new job and moving on. The firm culture isn't great and work-life balance is non existent. My physical and mental health have been suffering, so I really don't think I could stay. How did you avoid the guilt trips from Partners/Senior staff trying to get you to stay?

What’s the typical salary for a GC VC role? They indicated they would pay in line with big law plus equity upside. It would be their first GC outside hire. Curious what the equity percentage would be?

I’m a fifth year associate who is ready to get out of litigation (and private practice altogether). I’ve only ever done professional malpractice (legal, med mal, etc) and feel like those skills will not transfer as well if I had done transactional work. Ideally I would like to transition to something in-house. Any suggestions as to what jobs/industries I could transfer into with only litigation experience?

I'm looking to leave the legal field. Its really toxic for my ADHD and I feel miserable everyday here. How can I pivot my career towards government/policy roles without having to take a huge step down in income?

I’m a defense-side employment attorney with 5-7 years of mid- to large firm experience. What would it take to pivot to an employee relations-type position? MBA? MHRM? Come as I am?

I can’t get out. I’m a barred attorney looking to move into a JD preferred role. I don’t like being at a firm. I’ve applied to hundreds (literally) of contract, compliance, regulatory, etc. sort of jobs. I’m not looking for a crazy salary either. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. How do I make the switch? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

What exit opportunities exist for international arbitration? I don’t want to litigate, and am a non-American so government jobs (which seem to be what my colleagues are exiting into) aren’t an option for me. I don’t ever see myself making partner (nor do I want to), and I feel totally stuck.

I’ve been practicing in both big law (many yrs ago) and now in-house for over 10 years. Quite often I struggle because I don’t find work fulfilling. I’ve been in industries that allegedly have greater cause (healthcare) but was eventually disappointed by the corporate bureaucracy and went to a cutting-edge tech company for intellectual stimulation. Still I struggle. Should I try public interest? Not that I don’t need the money but it’s hard to work when I am so detached and find it meaningless

I’m interviewing for a GC role at a company that’s never had in-house counsel before. I’ve never been a GC - what questions should I be asking?

Has anyone made the transition from non-profit and small firm practice to federal government, big law, in-house? I’m a special education parent attorney at a small firm and I’ve spent my legal career in the education and juvenile areas of the law working for 2 non-profits before ending up at the firm. However, I’m just exhausted, unmotivated, and and looking for a change. At this point (6.5 yrs of practice), is that type of transition even possible or am I stuck due to the practice area?

Does anyone have any insight on Lewis Brisbois in Providence?

I found out that I can make more money starting, buying and running businesses than I can in law. Plus I'm home at 6pm every night. Did anyone find that out?

Anyone successfully pivot to education? Any advice is appreciated. I applied for Director of Student Services role that seems really interesting.
