But for me, no, I have not been successful.

Successful once (in that I got an interview), but generally I think through a recruiter is better.

For in-house jobs at least—find the job through LinkedIn and apply through the website. Be one of the first to apply.

I'm a third year plaintiff's employment law attorney and I'm looking to move to defense, preferably still in employment law. I received an offer from a midsize firm that primarily focuses on PI with little-to-no employment law practice, so I'll have a bit of a learning curve. Offer is $90k, billable hours of 2100. Is this reasonable? I'm dead-set on leaving my current job, and this would be a $20k pay increase - which makes me believe I'm leaning towards taking it for those reasons only.
