What are the best resources you’ve found that walks you through step-by-step, the data incident management process and what to ask your client?

Has anyone used a career coach? Not a recruiter but someone who can give advice on making career changes. Any good names come to mind?

Hi all! Looking forward to the fishbowl community. I would appreciate the likes to access DMs. Thank you!

I have a real estate client who at the top of his organization chart owns is 50/50 partners in a real estate investment company. First question is it advantageous to have the top of the organization 50/50 partners own the r/e company as an s-corp? That 50/50 company then owns 70% of holding company they own all the real estate as a partnership that the original partners are 35/35 and the investors own the remainder. All the real estate deals are then owned by this holding company.

Do you feel like turnover has now diminished after this busy season or will it kick up again as we approach the next one?

At this point, I'm wondering if most firms have hired enough people or they are still on the lookout due to shortage.

Hi,

Just received a call from GOC for one of the position
What's the Voice Assessment round & how long will be the technical interview?

I’ve been told my company is changing my title from Associate Director of BD to Sales Executive. I’m concerned it reads like a title demotion. Is it just semantics? How will this look for my career development? Curious about the standard perception of Sales Executive from a seniority perspective. Where does this land on the sales roles hierarchy? For context, it’s a professional services firm, I’ve been there 3+years, and they gave a Sales Executive title to someone who just started 5mo ago.

Anyone work for Morgan Lewis Bockius? Specifically in Boston ?

Does anyone know how to create tree file list on unix? For example, i have folder 1 and in it there are 2 sub folders (folder2 and folder 3), then in folder 3 there is another sub folder called folder 4. What are the quick steps and commands needed?

I’m brand new to this bowl. What markets do these lovely Latina lawyers practice in?

Have any of you mentored a student? College or high school?

How’s everyone holding up?

So I had an interview in early September and a second interview almost 2 weeks ago. I received an email with an update last week, essentially saying that the interview went well and they would follow up with me. It’s been about a week. Should I follow up? If so, any advice on how to write that email?

Since suit shopping is hard enough, what suits fit the best? I love BOSS and Ann Taylor.

Have you found a Latinx mentor in your office? How many Latinx attorneys do you work alongside? For my first two years, the answer has been no and zero.

I’m getting ready for my first review: what kind of raise did you get after your first year? My firm doesn’t have a lock-step increase, so I don’t know what to expect or what to ask for.

Hello! It seems this bowl is not very active but I'd like it to be. So here's my story: Born & raised in PR, moved to CA for undergrad & have been here since then. I graduated from law school in 2019, followed by a 2 yr bk clerkship. I did the evening program. I really enjoyed law school, in spite of the microaggressions, the late nights, & crazy competition. Love all things diversity in the law. Anyway, currently looking for a position in NYC/DC area. 🤗

I’m a third year associate wanting to leave my second law firm. My first two years of practice I was at a small firm and left to a mid-size firm to practice insurance defense. I have enjoyed the practice but not the firm. The firm’s culture is toxic. The firm has had 7 attorneys leave in the last year. Is it wrong for me to wanting to leave? Will i give the impression of being a job hopper? Does it really matter?

Hi! I am super new to this app and I see a consistent ask about latina(x) mentors. Has anyone been able to find one and how? I am still looking and frankly could you use all the support. I am the only latina in my office and culturally sometimes I hit these invisible walls that make me feel so incredibly self conscious. I am the first to have a degree in my family so they do support me but there’s a huge gap. I want to know how to navigate big law/private practice without losing myself & culture

So I vented yesterday on the Attorneys of Color brown I think I should have come here directly...are you the only Latina attorney in your office? Its 2020 and I’ve still to this day am the only Latina Attorney or Latinx attorney at all in my office and have been at every office since I became a lawyer (2014). It’s so effing lonely...

Do any of you spend time on HNBA or other affinity organizations? If so, do you bill your time as non-billable, i.e. diversity? And how do you balance your time going to an events/getting involved?

Hi ladies! First gen Latina corporate lawyer here. I’ll be relocating from DC to NYC soon. Recognizing how hard it is to find diversity in the workplace even in the most diverse cities, I’ve joined this bowl in hopes of contributing to building a community among my fellow Latina lawyers. Happy to chat virtually or grab a coffee anytime.
