The gap on my resume is starting to worry me. I took time off for personal reasons, but every application asks for dates and it feels like a red flag. For those who’ve had gaps, did you explain it directly in the resume/cover letter?

What’s the best practice for giving notice. Is it suggested to wait till the employment verification from employer abroad (from few years back. For e.g India stint) clears if rest of the background check has cleared.

It may seem obvious, but in my experience partners value trial experience over anything else, so get it however you can. For example, my firm will favor a former prosecutor who has seen the courtroom a lot but has no civil litigation experience (not even a depo) over a seasoned associate who has only second chaired cases with a partner but hasn’t tried a case. Even trying a case and losing gives you credibility at my firm because you still did it.

First off - thanks for any help!

After doing freelance for the last two years, I’ve decided to go back to the corporate world. I’ve been applying a ton of places but keep getting turned down immediately - not even a first interview and I can’t figure out why.

I feel like I have a lot of good accolades as far as awards, a graduate certificate program board I’m on, really good stats from my previous work, etc.

I have 7 years experience. Are people looking for someone w/ less experience/cheaper?
