Has anyone successfully transitioned from only having an in-house background to a firm, preferably an AM Top 100 firm? For background, I'm a technology contracts counsel for a big 3 financial institution and I had a sub 3.0 GPA in law school and a 2015 graduate. If so, what are things that could do or should I even consider making the switch?

Low billable, low pressure work in privacy law? Slowly realizing that as my boys get older, the money isn’t worth what I’m missing out on. Currently a tech litigation associate with lots of hearing, depo and trial experience (I’ve appeared on my own at hearings/depos) at a well respected firm. I have limited privacy experience despite being hired for that reason… Have my CIPM and CIPP/US /E and /C. Remote preferred; hubs is pilot with cool intl transfer opportunities. Money isn’t issue.

Any law firms hiring junior attorneys? I’m scheduled to take the CIPP/US certification in a month. Other than that, I don’t know how else to stand out and/or show genuine interest in the field. Any advice is much appreciated!

Hi Designers,

Thank you in Advance!

I recently started (5/mo ago) at a new agency and everything is a 180 from my last role and I’m honestly getting discouraged. Everything from pitching style and media approach to the types of clients (I was told in the interview process I was going to be working with some clients but that has totally shifted) and I feel like my experience and expertise is both not valued and ideas shot-down at every turn. How can I turn this experience around?

There’s a man that always hangs in the lobby of my building and by the elevators. He frequently follows me and others into the building and is clearly on drugs.

Last night I ran into him by the elevators. It was a little unsettling so I called the front desk to escort him if he lived here. Based on their response, he clearly doesn’t live here nor am I the first person to call about him. He followed me into the bldg again today. Is there a way to keep him away besides just calling security?

Does anyone have suggestions on approaching a raise when your company uses ‘black box’ HR formulas/bell curve distributions? Went in-house straight out of law school at a Fortune 50.

Can someone explain how PTO works in house? I have only ever worked at a firm, starting my first in house position end of this month. I’m used to just blocking off time on my calendar if I have an appointment (like the rare occasion I have a dental appointment, well child checkup, etc) and then going. Do I really need to take PTO for these things? I’ll be working remotely 3-4 days a week for reference and I’m talking about days when I’m remote.

Anyone here counsel for a parent company with a lot of subsidiaries but the parent company’s legal department is really really small?

Thanks!

Not sure my company would pay for it though since I’m not in the privacy department/counsel role.
