What’s AU?

Advisory university, we do a week a year in Orlando for CPE. It’s awful. Make sure to hit chillers tomorrow night for the dollar beers

like

It’s when a lot of advisory people are bunched together in a hotel in Orlando and made to talk to each other over cheap beer and wine while most of them are lamenting roaming around in Gryffindor robes

Maybe he/she isn’t happy with the class content lol

That moment when you realize you effed up

Haha

K1 replace gryffindor with hufflepuff and that’s accurate

I get some people like the social/networking aspect of AU but I’ve never been to AU and get my CPE’s through college classes and conferences. I feel like AU is an introverts (me) nightmare.

@A1 why? Is that what you lament?

Is it just me or does everyone struggle to make decisions that affect the next few years? (E.g., job, house, car etc.) - I have some criteria and I started to eliminate and then found two options with comparable pros and cons and now just paralyzed in analysis without being able to move forward. Ugh. Everything I could think of I have done - asked for advice, slept on it, taken a walk and looked at everything again but I just feel stuck.

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

Advice requested: When you were a legal intern or a summer, what type of projects did you like best? What was most helpful to you when you received a new assignment? Anything you wish your mentor did/didn’t do? I’m working with my first ever intern and trying to structure projects so they know that the work is important and relevant to the business, and why, and to provide enough background info on the area of law so they don’t spin wheels on the basics. What else should I be doing?

Is IB worth the sacrifice of WLB? Obvious pay is really good but are the prestige and pay worth it if you’re planning on only doing it for a couple years?

Currently working at an IRA with great WLB. Honestly I love my job, the firm, and people I work with.

Also doing MBA part time at a T15 school. Thinking about switching to IB but I’ve done my research and I think I would burn out of IB in two years but I might be ok with that for the opportunities after.
