It definitely varies. I just interviewed at a firm last week through a recruiter. Submitted my resume the week before. Likewise just interviewed for an in house role that I was referred to by a colleague and had an interview within a week of the referral. I’m sure it depends on the needs of the company and what area of law.

So if it’s more than a week, let it go?

Well, it’s more than one basket lol. But thank you. I’ll keep it moving 🤷🏻‍♀️

What are your thoughts about having to take an iq/personality assessment tests? It seems so outdated to me. I don’t think it predicts how you will truly perform at a job.

I present, interview clients, demo products, and facilitate meetings for a living. So what if I go home and shut down after work? I’m exhausted from speaking all day!
