What is the likelihood of getting an appellate clerkship after 2-3 years of practice? Does your answer change when you’re applying to clerkships 2-3 years in the future? (E.g. 5-6 years out)?

Go look on LinkedIn for former clerks of the judge you're looking to apply to (or other judges in that circuit). How many of them had years of experience prior and what does that experience look like? That should give you a clue.

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!

I’m frustrated. I’ve been in the job market for an ungodly amount of time, applying to various companies and have had zero luck.

I’m getting worried nothing will pan out and would really appreciate words of wisdom. Given our current situation, I understand the job market isn’t too hot right now but, are there any companies you’d suggest looking into that are hiring? Ideally, I’d like to work client-facing (sales, BDM, partnerships etc.) please help!

Why there is so much misunderstanding between job posts related to Data Analyst and Data Scientist role ?

Most of the time while applying for Data Analyst role too under the job description they mention mandatory skills as ML/AI.

I mean if one knows ML and has hands-on experience on it, won't he apply for the Data Scientist role!

Because of this misunderstanding, I believe many Data Analysts have to suffer...

Does anyone see a shift in the industry wherein less emphasis is placed on billiable hours? I used to work at a firm where the average stint for an associate is 1 year or less. They lost clients as the clients got sick of seeing a new associate on their files every 6 months. The founding partner was near retirement so his goal was to maximize revenue rather than long term career development. I don’t see this as sustainable especially given millennial culture emphasis on work-life balance.

It is common practice at my small firm by two main partners to fly through transactions for clients regardless of potential conflicts (for the company) or issues that may arise. It is often chaotic and has led to lawsuits being filed by investors against the clients. I know this is expected from time to time but I feel like I’m not getting the proper exposure to doing deals the right way. Would it be better at a larger firm or is this common anywhere? Mostly deal with microcap companies.
