Depends on so many things. A month is probably safe as long as you've got a decent track record.

A day. RIP OP.

More than a month. Less than a year.

Long shot: if you're in MC make a connection with director in DDV and see if they need help on anything

But DDV is firing people

^ 😳 (proceeds to hide under desk)

Anyone feel like it took them longer to come into their own as associates? I was a terrible junior, I got fired from my job at a small plaintiff firm. They told me that I don’t have the “mental acuity to be a lawyer,” but as a fifth year at a V30 something just clicked. I just got the first positive evaluation of my professional life. I have a December birthday and this is the first time in ages that I can go into it not feeling hopeless.

Hi, I had been laid off several weeks ago and because of eagerness to find a new job, I had sent out several apps to companies with positions I qualified for. However, I was screened out immediately due to my resume.

Because of this, I had revamped my resume to better showcase my qualifications after having colleagues review and provide feedback.

I wanted to see if it would be worth trying to apply to the same positions with a different email? Thank you for any advice!
