Hi IBM sharks 🦈
So I got interviewed for a project by the IBM team. The interviewer told me that its a go ahead from their end, now the client will assess my profile and if they too are fine with it, I will be onboarded?
Is it true that we have client interview as well? If yes then after how many days of interview by IBM team, client interview takes place?
Or its just that if the IBM team is fine with it, we are selected for the project?
Any inputs on this will really help :)

It’s not considered lateraling if you go to a USAO or DOJ. It’s a very common thing. Apart from DOJ honors, many USAOs and DOJ sections only hire experienced attorneys, and much (most?) of the time that is former biglaw associates.
That’s great to hear because that is more or less my background!
I have applied for or been asked to join a USAO on 3 occasions. Politics got in my way, but many of the prosecutors there came from private litigation.
Part of why I was in demand was my state level prosecution and investigation experience, which the private practice folks didn’t have. However, I came to learn what USAO valued (and I lacked) was the quality of written product and “big law” competitive hours of seeing who can be chained to their desk longer.
Following! Especially interested in which jurisdictions people have done this.
Yeah that would be helpful. I’m located in Miami.
I worked as a SAUSA and clerked for a federal district judge. Been in private practice at a nice boutique since. I’ve seen folks transition to usao and doj from all three. Interestingly, I saw more folks get in from a sausa position than I did moving over from a clerkship, or a boutique. That may have been specific to where I was (Midwest). But sausa is a good way to do it, if you can find a paid sausa position or if you can handle going uncompensated for however long it takes. I loved it fwiw.
