Looking for advice on going to law school in my mid 30s. Went into consulting out of undergrad and settled into a role with solid pay/WLB (325k TC/remote/45 hrs week). I have the LSAT/GPA for T14, but struggle with the idea of taking on debt/ giving up $1M in career earnings. Thinking of doing a top part time program, but unsure how I would pivot into a well compensated law job after graduation. Would you trade solid pay/WLB in the middle of your career for higher comp on the back end of it?

Has anyone out there worked for a cruise line before? what was it like?

Thinking of moving from Big4 cyber to Accenture cyber. Any major differences (other than no channel restrictions).

Hi All, I am a freshly graduated student from the University of Queensland with a business management degree and a major in International Business. My work experience involves 3 internships at reputed firms in my final year. I just moved back to the country and have decided to start my career in sales in a tech-focused company based out of Delhi or Bangalore, and would really appreciate some recommendations/introductions to the relevant people at companies that fall into my target group.
Thanks!

How do find a recruiter in the legal field? Have been looking for a job for a year now and trying to transition into another practice area. Applied to more than 20 jobs and still no offers. I feel like I might need some help.
Also, I have no idea how these arrangements work. Do you pay the recruiter to look for the jobs or do you pay them when you get the job? Or does the employer pay them?

Can an ADA make the jump to big law or a boutique litigation firm? I’m a NYC ADA (DANY/KCDA) from a Tier 2 law school (top 45% only) and top 10 undergrad. Can experience make up for mediocre grades?

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?

Anyone have tips on writing a cover letter without referring to anything in the resume?

Hi, been stuck in the contract analysis/review cycle. I have asked a few recruiters how to make a lateral move into in-house. They told me to focus on contract management, which I have been doing for the past year. Now that I have, are there any sites besides “jobscan” that I can use to make sure my resume fits the job descriptions? Does anybody know any recruiters that could help me, as well?

What distinguishes a good recruiter?

When do firms start sponsoring green cards? What’s the earliest year you have seen and can I negotiate this as part of lateral package?

Assuming that I'm okay with a salary of 70K and more, and that I really don't want to work at a law firm. Is it going to be difficult for me to return to law with two years of experience and one year working in a legal adjacent role.

I have an offer for $130k for a senior attorney position in a boutique L&E firm. Also have a recruiter who thinks she can get me into another for $150-170k. Both are more than I’ve ever made (Denver, 17 yrs of experience but completely different practice areas). Any tips for countering the $130k offer for more using the other potential offer while not risking a complete withdrawal of the current offer? I’ve never been in a position to bargain my starting salary so this is all very new to me.

As a 20+ year lawyer with no big law experience (smaller and mid size firms plus government and in house experience), would a BigLaw firm even consider me? Perhaps an of counsel position? Even a senior associate?

I need some career advice. I finished my master's degree in international law (B.A.Sc international relations) but I am not sure where to go from here. I always wanted to join a big firm and I've applied to different vacancies in international firms/companies but got rejected from all of them.

What is the protocol with talking with recruiters? I'm not pre se looking to move right now but if something with more money and flexibility regarding location opens up then I'm not opposed.

Is it wrong to talk to them about possible opportunities?
