Lmao Goodwin is an utter joke

Think Covid is gonna get out of hand in the few months. Any stock recommendations in light of this?

I’m a jr SWE and have successfully landed an interview with Google. It’s time for the coding and interview rounds. I’m a wreck. What was the best way to prep for this portion of the interview?

Does anyone ever hide that you are lawyer, to escape the "free advice" questions?

Today is the first day of the new work week! What are your goals for this week?

Did anyone from your past tell you you wouldnt make it as a lawyer? Did you ever rub it in their face later that you in fact did?? 😂

If there is a bowl for in house attorneys of color, please lmk!

I’ve taken FAR a few times at this point. I got two 74s and this past one I got a 70. I felt like the last exam (which was a few weeks ago) was extremely harder than the other ones. Has anyone else noticed the exam getting extremely tough? Or do you think I just got a one off?

Hi team. Hope you all are well and safe.
I will be joining Accenture in two weeks, want to get some understanding on the current policy on remote work and return to office date if there is one.

Hi Fishes,

Can you please confirm how long does the joining offer ( provided by PWC ) remain active in workday portal?

I'm looking for referrals for SAP BASIS. 3 YoE and serving notice period.

Please DM. Thanks in advance.

I am currently a medical biller and coder that just graduated. I am currently in an entry level position because I am still studying to get certified. I will have a year's work of exp in July and will sign a contract for another year because my boss is training me in more I don't know.

I'm wondering what the pay is for someone in my position without certification. I live with family and want to afford to move out but I am single and only make $18/hr. Is that standard or am I being underpaid?

Please help me to get 11 likes to enable DM.
Thanks in advance.

I can’t find Binance on the App Store! There is one app but it appears to be only for price change notifications not buying or selling?

I’m trying to hire two roles and am really struggling with candidates asking for way more than I’d be prepared to pay for their experience and skill set, yet feel held over a barrel due to the climate. Anyone else having the same issues?

I’ve been with my company for 4 years and I’m thinking about applying for a new job. For references, I would like to use my coworkers but I also don’t want to bring up the fact that I’m applying to other places. How should I handle my references when it comes to applying or interviewing with other companies?

Accenture folks, seeing lots of news about layoffs at other firms here. Are we in the same situation?

Seattle Design Culture - How much do you hate/love it?

Beginning to consider going in house (4th, corp) - I really haven’t thought about what I want, partly because I’m not sure what’s out there/attainable. Is it a bad idea to start by applying to a couple positions that interest me and seeing where that gets me? I’ll of course prep for the interviews but am afraid to burn potential bridges if I ultimately decline because I’m still figuring things out.

Which firms have no billable requirement and centralized staffing?

What’s next on your expensive wishlist to make this job a little more comforting?

Paralegals: what’s your least favorite thing about working with attorneys?

If you do billable work on a given PTO/vacation day, do you still count that day as vacation? Or do you get that vacation day "back"? Or do you only get the part that you billed "back"? (Or some other option.)

What states have a big law market where I can get the most out of my dollar? Also currently work for CA firm, if I move to another state does the state tax rate switch to where I live?

How do I tell a firm I screened with that another firm I screened with is moving forward with full rounds? I would prefer the former firm, even though the latter firm is ranked higher. Thanks for any advice

Restructuring/Bankruptcy associates, how slow have you been this year so far? Seems like industry wide it’s been a very quiet year.

Maybe I’m just realizing I’m lazy… but do y’all ever get assigned an actual, hard research or drafting project and realize you don’t like the effort? Like plz let me go back to doc review.

Has the general attitude towards tattoos changed at all in biglaw? I hardly see tattoos on any of the older associates/partners but it seems the newer associates also don’t have them/wear clothing that shows any

Let’s talk speed reading. I’m a slow reader and listened to a podcast recently on speed reading. I’m intrigued. Who here speed reads? How did you learn those skills, and what types of documents do you speed read in practice? I do mostly litigation and am thinking that speed reading would help with research but maybe not things like doc review where you need to review for both responsiveness and privilege.

What monetary goal/target are you telling yourself to hit before quitting big law?

Just started in Biglaw as a first year - one of the partners made a passing remark that he couldn’t remember my PQE but thinks I’m “the same as X associate”. Went on LinkedIn and saw that X associate is a third year. How do I gently correct this misconception in a future conversation?

When is it acceptable for a junior to raise their hand and say they’re drowning? Like billing how many hours on consecutive days? Just getting a sanity check.

Any news from DPW? 🤔🤔

Who’s working on the twitter acquisition? The dataroom has to be nuts.

Any of my corporate M&A lawyers feeling the deal flow slow down a bit or just me?

Which is more painful: watching litigators draft contracts or transactional attorneys litigate?
