To potentially allow for them to let me work out of my current city?

You’ll need to prove to them the value you bring will offset the cost/difficulty of you not being in the same office. What differentiates you from the next candidate that is willing to work in their office?

What's holding you back from moving? If it's your dream job, move. Maybe after a year or so you can ask to be transferred once you've established relationships and your value to the company.

I’d be moving back to a city I left a little over a year ago

Hi all, I’m looking to re-enter the workforce. I had to take a career pause @ the beginning of the pandemic because I had a child. I have 5+ years of experience in life science (bench top, pathology in a hospital, startup, and most recently clinical research). I’d like to make a slight pivot into a health informatics, clinical data or data analytics position but I’m also open to non clinical research positions like regulatory/quality assurance etc. Does anyone have any recommendations? TIA

Which companies pay the most for in-house legal / would find prior in-house VC experience useful? I run legal at a VC fund but am barely breaking $200K. I am ex V10 M&A and came from a traditional in-house gig (5 yrs total exp).

I think I may need to transition (eventually) out of my current role because my work/skills are getting very narrow. I don’t want to get pigeonholed. Ideal job for me would be corporate development related legal or product related work.

Resume gap: My position will be abruptly end in December (was informed this week). However, I won't be interview ready in the next 2 weeks. So how bad does a gap of 1-2 months appear to tech recruiters?

Common knowledge is it is a disadvantage to the candidate from a salary negotiation process. I'm also told hiring decisions at places like AWS & GCP take time and it might be a few months before an offer letter is received.
