If I saw this on a resume for our company, I would laugh

Because we’re not interested in your ability to advertise yourself. We’re in-house legal, not marketing.

P1 and SA1 covered it. You should tailor your resume for the role and in-house this does not matter. Use any extra space to show me how your experience relates to the job. It wouldn’t stop me from interviewing but it would make me wonder if they were just mass sending their resume out to both firms and companies. I think it’s better to leave it off and make it clear your focus is on landing an in-house role.

That one in particular goes to any young attorney who fills out the super lawyers profiles to a certain completeness. The actual super lawyers is from peer votes but rising stars is less of an earned honor

I am in the process of applying to go in house. I put it in my resume. I’ve gotten multiple interviews and call backs for in house positions and nobody has said anything about it. If a company doesn’t interview you bc you put that and doesn’t care about your actual credentials you don’t want to work for them anyway

It can’t hurt but I don’t know if it would move the needle.

Absolutely, that’s 100% what a resume is for.
