I took an almost 10 year break and went into marketing/copyrighting/digital ads. I ended up getting back into law when the privacy laws began impacting the business where I work. They realized I wasn’t using my law degree, and I pivoted back into a legal role. It was a Pretty easy (shift for me (compliance and product counseling).
You can always pivot. Your career will likely span a few decades so it’s natural to explore new areas and evolve practice areas. I’ve met a lot of women who’ve done so for various reasons. Good luck!
Yes but it was fairly short. Left lit boutique thinking I didn’t want anything to do with law. Ended up in house six months later (am now in fed government). I didn’t work during those six months, was trying to figure out next steps. When I started looking again, not one interviewer asked me about the gap or why I wasn’t currently working 🤷♀️
Nope. Honestly I think people just glossed over the dates in my resume and assumed I was still at the firm.
