Right. Recruiters are a hammer and every job is a nail. They’re not interested in building custom libraries.

I’ve actually relied on recruiters themselves to help me out. It may be true that most don’t care whether you are a right fit for any particular role, but they get paid based on hires not interviews. So it’s usually in their interest to help polish you up a bit.

I know there are a ton of posts on billable hours requirements at many firms but do any other mid/senior level associates spend a TON of time on non-billables - group/dept./firm meetings; training; events; business development (writing articles, doing webinars, networking; outside association events); etc.? I feel like the number of hours spent on this is lost in the discussion sometimes and I know I spend an additional 300-400 hours on this per year. Anyone else?
