Hi,

I’m in need of a recruiter. I’m on paid parental leave but laid off for unspecified reason 1 month into new firm. I have employee benefits, executive compensation, and employment law experience at several AM law firms and Big4 consulting. Im open to going in house , finding another law firm (though less appealing now), back to consulting, employee benefits producer roles, or anything else that may apply creativity, people and project management, attention to detail, and entrepreneurial.

There seem to be a ton of EBEC openings at the moment. You should be able to land something. Happy to share recruiters I’ve used in that space. Good luck!

Did you start on parental leave immediately on joining the new firm? If so, it’s may be best to leave that job off your resume and treat it as if you took time for the new baby.

For the most part, I’d expect recruiters to focus on firms. You may want to look at in-house positions yourself, focusing on employment law positions.

I operate best in team leadership, collaborate environments (I have found practice of law not to be that way but siloed instead). I also have unemployment insurance experience from my Big4 consulting days.

I have a good recruiter.

Resume feels like a big red flag, your challenge will be to fix that problem.

Thanks?
