Anyone made the move from big law to in-house by landing at a client with input / referral from your firm? I am considering a move in-house, and would love to end up at one of our clients, and looking for advice on how others managed the move and what the timeline was (i.e., did you see the role you wanted advertised or did you talk to the partner and flag it before a role was advertised)? Also any insights on folks doing secondments first to test the waters would be appreciated 🙏

I can’t speak from the firm side. But from the in house perspective, we love to hire people who have done secondments for us, or even other clients.

I didn’t go in-house with input from my firm but I did go in-house to a firm client that I had done a lot of work for. I already had a good relationship with the client so didn’t feel the need to seek firm input before applying or throughout the early interview process. I alerted the relationship partner when I was prepping for my final round interview. He was very supportive and helpful. Firms are generally excited to send attorneys in-house, and in-house teams are generally excited to hire people that are familiar, so it’s a good thing all around.

I think it makes sense to get the conversation started when you see a job posting. It may also make sense to reach out to a trusted partner on your team first rather than the relationship partner for that client directly.

I am working on a project to built OKR and KPI software for performance prediction. The tool that helps companies track KPIs and predicts business performance using these KPIs. This does two things for the business 1) creates visibility around performance individuals, departments and business as a whole and 2) enables businesses to predict outcomes for the next month, quarter etc.

I am interested in is knowing, a) if companies track KPIs and how do they do it b) (to be continued in comment)
