I agree wholeheartedly:
Best consulting firms without the massive ego?
Thoughts on a Omega De Ville Prestige as a first luxury watch? Would be ~$7.5K USD at retail. Some friends have said great things about Omega as a starter, whereas others say it’s not worth it over a Rolex Oyster Perpetual (which would be similar in cost).
I personally love how clean the design is, the use of gold, and the thinner band as it links the watch … find the Rolex band design to be too chunky.

People can only hire those they've heard of.
Interesting
Now? I'm relatively new to this profession but I'm under the impression that this industry has always relied on reputation and personal branding.
Yes, but it seems it’s more and more on the personal branding now than before, or maybe it’s just in my network
You may not need a personal brand to get hired as an employee but you will need one if you expected to be promoted to partner, GC, etc. This is nothing new. Reputation matters.
True
Reputation has always been a part of it. We’re just seeing it done differently now. The LI posts and more on social media. I’d argue it’s still more word of mouth than whatever “think pieces” people decide to post.
Thanks
I'm in government and have taken this mindset for the past few years. A. It brings in more interesting work IME, because it captures other government employees who otherwise weren't coming to OGC, and B. I'm not planning to retire here so when I do leave, I want some name recognition in my field. I'm not a heavy poster (1-3 times per month, maybe 5 substantive comments) but my average posts get ~50-250 reactions, which I'm pretty happy to have built up to. I'm not aiming for viral, just focused awareness from other lawyers and potential future clients in my niche.
