Creatives what’s the protocol for resumes these days? Are we just using the ATS ugly word doc or are we keeping the creative resume as well? And which are we submitting to the job application? How many pages is acceptable?

1 page. If you are a designer/art director, choose an elegant grid layout (dust off that Grid Systems textbook from college).

Optionally, have an ATS prepped version. But if you’re applying that way, you’re wasting your time.

Depends on how much experience you have. I would include all relevant roles. If that exceeds three previous roles, I would simply just show the latest three.

Next week I’m having my first lateral interview as a junior associate. I’m very nervous because the group with whom I’m interviewing works with life science/tech clients and the attorneys have strong science/tech backgrounds; and I do not. However, I am very, very interested in transitioning to this practice. And I reaaally want this job because it’s at my dream firm. How would you recommend preparing for the lateral interview?
