Before you dive into Apple’s interview process, I’d suggest you and the recruiter get aligned on comp first. Depending on where you are right now, you may be surprised by their comp.

Additional Posts in In-House Counsel

I’m rounding out my second year as a litigation associate at a top-tier regional firm in a part of the country where there are no big law offices. My firm has ~90 lawyers, and we’ve lost 6 since December, 5 of which are women.

This mass exodus has me considering a career jump. I have an opportunity to go in-house at a Fortune 500 doing work I think I’d LOVE. Are there any drawbacks to going in-house this early in my career?
