Conti...
I would really like to shift to Instructional Design and have applied in many companies including the Big 4s several times but have always been rejected. I even did 2 courses related to Instructional Design from Udemy to upskill myself.

Can someone please help me understand what exactly am I lacking? My CV gets rejected in the initial screening. Some tips would be really helpful.

How did current in-house attorneys find their positions? I am currently in big law with 3 years of experience. Seems that most recruiters can only help me lateral to other big law firms.

I’ve been with firms for 6 years. I struggle (not that I’m not intellectually capable of doing this job), I just hate the detail oriented nature of this industry. Everything gets scrutinized so carefully and most things I stayed up late for doesn’t matter.

I just got PIP talk and they are pushing me out next year. I’m kinda relieved. I want to leave law completely and be someone on the operation side. Eventually I want to be an COO.

How do I get there from here?
