When I worked at a holding co agency, anywhere from 4 to 7. It was insane.

Now, 2-3

When I was on the agency side, 4 clients at a time, *at least* a dozen projects happening simultaneously, including production.

In-house… 2-3. A week. 😂 AND the boss is always like, “Sorry this workload is so crazy right now.”

I’m hoping someone might have some ideas about this- I’m currently five years out of law school with a clerkship, a tax LLM, 3 years of experience doing transactional tax work and a few months of EC/VC experience (which I recently switched to from tax). I like the EC/VC work, but I don’t know how long I want to stay in biglaw. Can anyone weigh in on how employers for in-house roles might look at my experience in a year or two?

When sending a cold email to a recruiter, should you include a reason why you’re interested in the agency? Or keep it short and sweet with your book, resume and what you’re looking for?
