Hey everyone! Trying to pivot into Program Management in big tech (preferably looking at Microsoft) any recommendations to stand out and get noticed by the recruiters/hiring manager? I have scoured through LinkedIn to try to find the right person to talk to in the NY office but no luck.

Advice and guidance appreciated folks!

I just came to realise

Fellow millennial lawyers: tell me, in general terms, 1 or 2 clients you acquired and how you acquired them. I feel like the suggested strategies for developing business are always the same: network, build your brand (hate this phrase), market yourself on LinkedIn, etc. Does any of this work? Seems to me to that most business development comes from long-standing contacts (e.g. your childhood best friend is now CEO and needs legal services), so I’m curious how other attorneys developed business.
