Graduated from law school with an in-house offer. Was laid off before bar results. Took a paralegal job with promise of promotion once licensed. Never happened. Took another paralegal job (con’t)

Fishes,
My coworker (who has the same title and job) just told me how much he made and it is 30-40% lower than what I make. Granted he does have a little less experience in the field but it shouldn't be that drastically different. How can I help him advocate for a raise within the company?

I'm leaving the company so how can I can help to make sure he gets some of my allocated salary budget?

What’s fair compensation (NC based) for commercial real estate paralegal work? (1.5 years of experience)

Currently make 48k but about to get a raise and would like to know how much the market is for this.

I’ve worked as assistant manager for years, but it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting a promotion anytime soon. I feel bad leaving since I'm kind of the glue around here and I’ve gotten to know pretty much everyone. Any advice?

The severance package at Meta for laid off employees almost makes it nice to be laid off depending on what your personal situation is….. personally wouldn’t mind getting 4+ months of full pay to reset and think about what’s next 😬

My notice period is 3 months .Can I raise my resignation and search for another job or would u suggest to get a different job and raise resignation.

Deloitte US just announced layoffs. Any other B4 started layoffs too ?

Hi everyone!

I am promoting my NFT collection with an Instagram page, but I have some doubts regarding IG algorithm.
As far as I know, replying to comments etc increases visibility, as it looks like it has more interaction.
However, I have many bots that automatically comments immediately every post telling me to DM them for promotion. How should I treat them? Should I reply something, or ignore them or block them? Not sure how IG algorithm would evaluate interacting with bots

With so much uncertainty in the economy and waves of layoffs that have hit tech especially hard... do we think there's really such a thing as a recession-proof job anymore if you're not an "essential worker"?

I am not sure what to do. My company just had another round of massive layoffs. So far my job was spared. I do got a job offer from a different company but the salary is way lower than what I have now (20,000$ less). Should I choose for financially stability but with a lower salary, or take the risk, keep the higher salary, but have a high chance to loose it as the company isn’t doing great.

Any info on when the discussions for mid-year promotion are happening? I understand that ppl will get to know between November 11-15.

Any advice for lateraling as first-year business lit associate? I’m not getting any work at my current firm due to partner hoarding and overstaffing. Can I lateral this early or should I wait until I’m inevitably fired for low hours? If I should lateral now, what reasons for leaving should I give interviewers? Should I tell the truth or will it look bad on me?

How would you explain layoff to recruiters? I am interviewing for Salesforce role. Upon asking, I mentioned it was due to company restructuring.

I was told that I was the chosen candidate for a new role that I applied for which will be promotion, I just recently received my offer and was surprised and decided to start negotiating. My boss immediately said that this is offer, either take it or lose it and no negotiating, and was only given a day to decide whether I want it or not, so he repost the position, and was also told that I was going about it the wrong way for trying to negotiate, Is this wrong of me to negotiate?

I just want to say that I still support police officers across the country. I know that these are tough times for everyone and while I condemn the officers that use lethal force on unarmed civilians...I understand that not all officers act like that. I would probably get thrown out if this were any other bowl.

Anyone know of recruiters that place people internationally?

Hello! Any resource for practicing digital transformation cases for consulting interviews? Thanks!

Any tips for how to optimize my retirement planning and what financial products to use? Im 29, single. Got 40K in cash, 20K in stocks. Just started my 401K Roth (plan on maximizing contributions via paycheck). Is it worth opening an IRA? Should I transfer some of my cash into my roth 401k? I can also open a traditional 401k additionally as well. However, I also want to make sure to save and buy real estate in the near term. Any tips appreciated!!

So, here it is. I was having joining on last week October as a senior analyst data science in Tiger Analytics. Today I got an call from HR that due to economic recession we are going to delay your date of joining by 2 months. My notice period was of 3 months. So total duration would be 5 months. Infact even after that too they didn't send me revised offer letter. There is something wrong with this company.
Fuck them

What are peoples current mortgage interest rates in the US and when did they start?

I'm from the UK and looking to move the US sometime soon with a view to buy and currently on a 1.4% interest rate on my UK property secured about 12 months ago for the next 5 years (so a good time to do it).

But seeing much higher interest rates mentioned on here so curious to get a temperature check on people's current deals.

I took a temporary job as an attorney advisor at the SBA this past fall b/c it offered a regular paycheck, and my solo practice was suffering b/c of the pandemic. I like the work. I like working from home. Anyone have any insight into the possibility of this temp job becoming permanent. Did the SBA hire you permanently when your temp position ended? How did that happen?

Two recruiters have told me that specific major national firms refuse to interview any current or former employees of the firm I work for. is this a big problem or something usual for firms? Panic set in and I’m worried I won’t find decent employment. Current role is underpaying and workload is unmanageable with zero sign of improvement.

Hi everyone,

I'm Looking for QA/SDET offer with relocation package to US. Do you have anything for me?

What happens when two different recruiters contact you about the same opportunity? Any obligation to go with the one who contacted you first?

So I was a municipal attorney for approximately 3 years and I did a lot of contracts, I see a lot of contracts counsel/contracts manager attorney positions. Am I out of my mind for applying to these? I have the general contract negotiation process pretty down, and I'm open to learning more about contract negotiation and such.

A recruiter contacted me for a position I love. She says I’m a good match and will put my resume and cover letter into the “portal”….-What does that mean? Is a portal the same thing as if I applied online myself? I always imagined recruiters have personal relationships with hiring managers. So I was surprised to hear about an online submission portal.

I was working with a recruiter to relocate to another market before covid and was recently stealthed. Should I share this information with my recruiter?

What questions should you avoid asking in an initial interview? Compensation and comp structure? Partner track? And what time is appropriate to ask?

I received a message on LinkedIn from an internal recruiter at a company that sounded intriguing. Would it be bad form to ask for more information about the role and about comp up front? I wasn’t looking to leave my firm until later next year at the earliest, but the company sounds really interesting. Don’t want to waste a lot of time if the comp isn’t right, though.

Which firms are the best legal recruiting firms to use in Philadelphia? Im a corporate/banking/privacy attorney in Philadelphia, and I am looking to make a switch to a new job. I’ve been searching and using two recruiters for months to no avail, and could use some extra help. Thanks I’m advance.

I am seven years out of law school having worked exclusively in the public sector. I’m concluding a district court clerkship and about to begin working as an AUSA (criminal). The USAO has a three year commitment. If I choose to leave after that time, what are my job prospects in big law? Relatedly, what sort of work should I focus on at the USAO if I want to ensure that I am marketable to big law? I may get to the Office, love it, and never want to leave. But, I want to keep my options open.
