I am a licensed attorney in NY in my 2nd year. My first attorney is an in-house counsel (fully remote) at less than 500 employee company. Because of my salary and not-so-challenging work, I want to find a new in-house role. But, most job postings are requiring 3+ YOE. Due to my personal situation, I cannot relocate. What are good ways (websites other than LinkedIn, Indeed, or recruiting companies, etc) to find a remote jobs for junior lawyers? Thanks!

Reach out to JW Michaels but it is very difficult/rare to see in-house opportunities that JR. Suggest sticking it out for that third year - it will be a competitive disadvantage compared with folks more senior in an interview process.

Hi All. I have a good job offer but I'm wondering whether I should negotiate comp. I made it clear from the beginning what my target for base comp was which is ~$10K over the top of the posted salary range for the job. I also said that I was comfortable proceeding with the interview process despite the top of that range being lower (somewhat weakening my position for later I suppose). The offer is at the very top of the range. Bonus is 5% less than what I get in my current job. Negotiate?

Hey All,

It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.
