Anyone succumb to the ads and try Il Makiage make up? Foundation/concealer. Their brilliant ads make me curious, but not sure why not seeing it at Sephora is getting in my way. (while I’m at, how about that Thrive mascara that is everywhere)?

Booz Allen fish…Trying to gain some data for comparison. How many people are on your admin team? How is team morale? What’s turnover like? Are employees awarded or recognized for their work? How often? What about promotions? Are they happening regularly? TIA!

in live hirevue interviews, can they tell if you switched tabs? I have a few notes on my computer id like to refer to if possible

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

I’m moving up to NYC in a few weeks for a job. Not sure where I should look to stay as a temp situation? Any ideas on affordable sublets in Manhattan or Brooklyn? I don’t want to go through a broker.

If i’m planning to move to the city (from philadelphia) and start a lease with a friend, what’s the best way to approach the apartment search? should i just visit for a week or two to look at places and then drive all my stuff up? should i just bring everything and sublet for a month? what’s a realistic time frame to secure a lease and then move in? any advice would be appreciated, thanks!

Anyone have had any luck buying a diamond (for an engagement ring) directly from a wholesaler in NYC? If so, which one did you go to and what was that process like?

What are your guys thoughts on the health and fitness industry? Considering something more fulfilling to do with my life

I'm in a bad place mentally and emotionally. It's becoming harder and harder to hide this at work. Think an unpaid leave of absence is a good idea?

Any recommendations for free or reasonably priced CLE courses for patent prosecution?

What’s the best way to break into life sciences VC/PE from a LS consulting background?

Welp! Finally got the axe today too. I didn’t even get to talk to my manager. One of the execs I support told me he’s very sorry and I was great, etc etc, but it couldn’t be avoided. Whatever. I kind of never want to work again. I’m heartbroken.

What should I aim to ask for a Senior Consultant position at EY FSO performance improvement group? 2.5 YOE, CPA, HCOL

New to the bowl!!

is BCG hiring a experience hire class of associates in march?

Tried to jump to a big 4 as a senior 2 in risk assurance . SF market - offered 93k base and 15k bonus. Is this worth?

Where are there openings for a lead strategist / head of strategy at the moment? Not asking for a friend.

All the posts I read in this bowl are centered around GC and priority dates. Am I the only one that can’t even seem to win the H1B lottery? Down to my final try 🤞🏼

Not necessarily Big Law specific but any firms hiring 2-3 year L&E associates in the Dallas area?

Any thoughts on Polsinelli real estate group in Dallas? How’s the pay, WLB, hour requirement etc. thank you!

Folks that have worked in Big Law in other areas of the country, what do you feel is different about being in Texas? I've been offered a role in NYC but may decline because I'm just happier here, culturally.

Can anyone provide me with insight as to what a comfortable salary would be in Austin, TX? Looking to move and Austin has become a possibility.

Thinking about lateraling to Dallas as a PE M&A third year associate from NYC. Which firm do larger deals? Public M&A? KE, Sidley, Gibson, or VE? Can you survive at any of the firms doing 2000 hours?

Winstead or Jackson Walker people in Dallas (or if you know someone in these office) — how often do you work weekends and what time do you generally “log off” for the day? Also curious as to average annualized hours. Thank you so much!

Looking at litigation boutiques in Dallas and Houston and there’s a lot of chatter about LPHS—anyone have any experience with them?

Lynn Pinker, a lit boutique in Dallas, just matched Millbank at 215k.

So the question has been asked a few times in the main Big Law bowl but keeps getting derailed into a political issue. As someone with a more conservative disposition anyway I'm interested in the day to day of life and work in Texas as opposed to NYC (or similar).

So, what are the pros and cons of living in Texas and working in Texas Biglaw?

How's inflation and cost of living in Texas this year and any predictions moving forward? With the recession looming or already here I'd like to relocate to somewhere cheaper (currently in Seattle), but only if it's going to stay that way.

Do most firms start reporting years in September or January? Prior firm did an August year for counting hours and then another did January (both Amlaw 200). Looking at an Amlaw 100 to lateral in the fall (so trying to anticipate how much of the year I’ll have). I’ll ask what bonus/reporting year but just curious if most follow the same.

What do you think of the LSAT decision? Personally I think it might be a little unfair to suddenly abolish it when hundreds of thousands of students have had to take it over the last few years and beyond. But I get that it's expensive. Anyways, good idea or bad idea?

Will be moving to Austin next year since my fiancé is getting relocated there. Anyone have any leads for junior technology transactions or data privacy roles. TIA!

What’s the best real estate shop in Dallas? Not including Winstead or Jackson Walker.

If your firm matches Milbank, please comment here!

Has anyone successfully transferred offices within Texas? Dallas to Austin.

Currently a 2nd yr lit associate (big law) in NY considering a move to a TX big law firm for the financial opportunity. Would leave to hear thoughts on this type of move or from someone who’s done so!

I wasn’t sure which bowl to solicit advice from so hoping to catch a bite here. I’m currently in ID. Of course, I want OUT! My interests are L&E and corporate. My options are 1) wait it out where I am in hopes to switch to L&E or 2) in house oil and gas industry transactional work. What would you do and why? I figured this bowl being specific to Texas would understand importance of oil and gas industry.

Did you vote? I finally made time after work yesterday.

Texas Big Law friends, might I suggest donating some of that big law cash to causes that are pro-gun control and anti-mass murder of children? I hope you’ll join me.
