Anyone studying toward the CIPM have any tips or study resources? Particularly those with a legal background working in privacy and regulatory compliance (non-IT cybersec). Would be delighted to connect. TIA ⭐

Good morning everyone,

I am looking for referrals if possible in Strategy, or IB. I have a year experience in a graduate program in IB (debt and capital markets) and another year experience in Management Consulting. Let me know if interested! Best if in London.

Kind regards all.

If I file a motion for temporary restraining order with the Southern District Court of NY on Monday, how long can I expect the order to be granted? Thank you in advance for any reply.

I find myself only caring about projects I can put into my portfolio and then when those go into production I become an overbearing a$$hole. Is that just me?

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them. Applied 9/1 and on the applicant portal the status still says “in progress.” I got a great internal referral, but I’ve not reached out to the hiring manager. 😬 I know there were a few hundred applicants — what’s a realistic timeline and what could I say to the hiring manager if I reach out to them. Many thanks.

Got an offer for Internal Auditor 65k w not related 2YOE and MBA. On hands Training. Is it okay? I negotiated it from 60. But that was the number I put in the app as expected so kinda itching now

Has anyone worked for IKEA FOOD?

Looks like there’s a lot of hiring activity at McKinsey in the US. Any London based McKinsey folks who’re willing to chat / refer potentially?

Thoughts on SPHR vs SPHRi? I have PHR currently. Current company is growing internationally so I'm debating which route to go.

Deloitte vs EY based in Sydney? For Manager level? Anyone can list some pros and cons?

Anyone have pro tips on where/ when to get the best grocery selection on the west side?

Hello all

Can I arrive UAE a couple of weeks before the job start date? Is it allowed?

If so, Do you recommend or see an advantage in doing so- in terms of settling in with family etc with that buffer? I understand this depends on country by country so curious to know your thoughts for UAE

How long are you considered a “baby lawyer”?

What do the top firms in Michigan pay first-year associates? Think Plunkett Cooney, Varnum, Honigman, Clark Hill, Bodman, Dickinson Wright, etc.

What are some ... if any ... non-law exit opportunities for a v10 tax associate?

How much do law firm office administrators or office managers in NYC generally make?

The partner I work for covers all depositions and doesn’t let me do any unless she absolutely can’t cover because of her schedule. I would like to take depositions and it would be great experience for me but she keeps it all for herself because it’s great billable. It’s so frustrating.

Anyone in marketing law? Just started a new job looking for any recommendations (books, blogs) to brush up on.

Any independent contractors? I work for a firm that pays a base salary. Any hours I clock above my base salary, I’ll get 33% of my hourly rate. I’m a first year associate. Is that about normal?

I am looking to leave my very small law firm firm and considering going to a much larger firm. I have some clients that were brought in by other partners but I am deeply entrenched in their work. It would not be easy for another lawyer to get up to speed, but the client contact is technically with another lawyer and I am working with that lawyer also on the file. I also have one client where we could really use some more bodies on the file. More in comments.

Love it when a non-lawyer prefaces a question about big law with "So I saw in 'Suits'..."

How many non-equity partners does Kirkland have? 😅

Quick question, helping old client in car accident, think she has a claim against a major corporation. Serving an officer of the corporation in another state seems difficult enough but I found information that I need to serve parent company overseas, is this true? Not that big of an issue it feels like. Any help or advice is very much appreciated! If you don’t ask questions, you never learn.

Anyone else struggle to bill with the warm weather? I feel like my mind is in summer-mode and work is slow enough where I don’t have deadlines forcing my nose to the grindstone.

Hi! I just passed the bar and I’m passionate to become an environmental attorney. The problem is I don’t have much experience because I took an accelerated edu track where I was still taking classes in the summers instead of getting experience. I’ve been focusing on applying to enviro positions in nonprofits and fed/state governments. Is this hopeless? Is it possible to start in an enviro attorney position straight after law school? Should I give up and just succumb to a big law tort firm? Thxs!

How long after a second round interview did you get an offer or rejection? Going crazy over here waiting for an answer after a second round interview last week

I’ve been running into weird happenings at my new firm learn of everything “I misunderstood” about my package. I don’t actually qualify for quarterly bonuses at a pro-rated billing rate; no 401ks till year 2; and the biggest—we don’t qualify for a raise unless we are here during the entire fiscal year. We have a 2100 billable req which I’m barely hitting. We also get paid below 6 figures. I learned that the new associates came is at least $10k over us. I graduated 2020–but 1st firm job. Advice?

I just received a job offer, contingent upon passing a conflicts check. My current firm has four active cases across the v from the prospective firm, none of which I have worked on, and none of which were handled by the office where I would be working. Could such a situation lead to the offer being rescinded?

Have you seen an increase in billing rates as a result of inflation? Would love to know your 2022 rate % increases.

Client confidentiality question:
I do UHNW luxury good transactions. About a year ago we represented buyer and seller on a deal. Deal fell apart because the buyer was shady and actively trying to engage in illegal acts. Buyer reached out asking us to represent them in a new purchase attempt, we declined.

They found new counsel and made an offer on the same asset. The owner doesn’t wish to engage with them. Can I give the owners reasons to the new counsel without violating duty to my old client
