Hi recruiter peeps!

My fiancé has been an immigration attorney for 4 yrs. We live in Raleigh NC and the pay is pretty poor (currently $65k). She is barred in VA and DC.

She’s really interested in switching to a new firm. Looking for a salaried position (not commission based) of at least $75k. Would love a remote position, at least a few days a week.

Her focus is family based immigration but would consider switching to business immigration or another attorney position. Please help!

Corporate immigration departments at any big consulting firm could be a good fit! I’ve heard a Fragomen pays well. I know you said not commission based but many staffing agencies hire attorneys for their legal practice at a minimum of $85k base + commission so that could be an option as well

Got an offer to work at a boutique PE fund as an intern for the next few months. The role is however unpaid and the fund is new.

For some background, I’m going to be starting at a T-2 firm doing CDD for PE funds in January. Wondering if getting this kind of experience looks good when I apply to analyst roles 1-2 years out? Don’t want to work without getting paid unless the experience is valuable. Would love any perspective on this.
