Haven’t applied to new jobs in years… stupid questions, but are resumes still relevant, or is everyone onto those personal websites that showcase work, history, etc?

Resumes are definitely still relevant- I think websites are more for creative portfolios than anything else.

Agreed. It can be good to have both. But always have a resume!

Start becoming a brand or thought leader and post incessantly on LinkedIn.

Ugh

Resume is fine

Resume for sure. A digital portfolio is fine, but it isn't the standard (from my point of view).

Resume! Very important, still very much needed—linkedin is very helpful nowadays, how I got my current job, but they will ask for an up to date resume! Good luck!

Next week I’m having my first lateral interview as a junior associate. I’m very nervous because the group with whom I’m interviewing works with life science/tech clients and the attorneys have strong science/tech backgrounds; and I do not. However, I am very, very interested in transitioning to this practice. And I reaaally want this job because it’s at my dream firm. How would you recommend preparing for the lateral interview?

If an otherwise good interview the interviewer says: “I think you have great experience that will help you wherever you go”. Should I be reading into this?

I have had several rounds of interviews for a role at Visa London office. When I reached out to the HR to check on progress/status after what they called the "final round", they said everything is positive and then set up another round with the hiring manager last week. TBH, that round seemed as if they want to make sure I have understood the job well. And there has been radio silence after that. Any idea how to read this? I have another offer and deliberating if i should just accept that.

Currently interviewing for a nontechnical role (final round is getting scheduled rn) and I see there’s a new job posting for a different role that I might be more excited by, for the same/associated team.
