As I explore new opportunities, I’ve noticed that many in-house roles emphasize industry experience. While my legal skills are transferable, I sometimes wonder whether not having direct sector experience puts me at a disadvantage.

For those who have successfully transitioned into a new industry, how did you position your experience? And for hiring managers, how critical is industry-specific knowledge compared to strong legal fundamentals?

My remit quadrupled+ in a recent re-org with no increase in pay/promotion, my new director is new to the company and was zero help, and I was passed over for recent promotion during the comp cycle. The new director essentially began shutting me down any time I ask for clarity in my career progression. Now they have taken credit for the project I’ve been building over the past year+ without giving me props whatsoever to higher ups. What is the best plan of action here?

I interviewed at a law firm and had my final round last Friday. The Tuesday afterward, I got a call from the recruiter saying the firm won’t have a decision for another week. I believe they’re interviewing other candidates. Does that make me second or third choice? And does the fact that I’m working with a recruiter hurt my chances of being selected due to the commission? Should I hold out for the offer or is 1+ week a sign that I won’t be selected?

I am looking for a new job at the end of a long career. I have excellent experience in IP and Supply Chain Management.

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate.

Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
