Junior tax associate at a v10. Is it possible to lateral to a general corp role in-house in a few years time (I.e, as a 3rd year)? And ideally does my tax experience have to be diversified vs one particular area of tax? Thank you in advance!

Do you have (or are will you have) any general corporate experience (M&A, commercial contracts, cap markets, ECVC, etc.) BEFORE going in-house?

Just leveling with you: moving in-house is already hard for corporate associates with 4+ YOE. You’d be looking for a real unicorn of a general corporate role that would take a 3rd-year tax lawyer with no corporate experience.

Depends on market, currently, nfw really. You're better off lateraling to a corporate practice at a law firm then going in-house for tax. Thank being said, if you want to go in-house, tax is probably easier than anything else at the 3-6 year level.

I also don’t know if he really has an opportunity or if this is just some corporate circle jerk where my current director is trying to “smoke me out”. I don’t speak poorly of my team/work.
