What’s your exit search strategy look like? Will be patient to find the best exit. Don’t feel that LinkedIn job browsing is going to yield best results. Should I retain a headhunter or try outreach to individuals at desired companies via LinkedIn?

I typically keep tabs on companies love and check periodically if they have a suitable role for me. I also network with people in my desired job title or company for the sake of it (but try to keep it natural). Sometimes it’s as easy as we follow each other on LinkedIn for a while (months, even) and when the right role comes up, then I ping them about wanting to chat or be connected with the right person to learn more about the role and if I might be a good fit for them (not really about it being a good fit for me bc that sounds selfish).

Cold applying to roles has never worked for me. For every company I’m interested in, when I see they have a good role for me I either reach out to any contact I have there or try to connect with their in-house recruiter on HR (might be worth getting LinkedIn Premium for a couple months for this)

I’m a business/commercial lawyer with 8 years experience looking to relocate to Chicago from NYC area, while also trying to make the jump to in-house after only ever working at a boutique firm. It’s been 5 months and I haven’t had any luck applying to job postings on the usual sites (no calls, no interviews, nothing). I can’t tell if this is due to covid, the market, the fact that I don’t have any in-house experience, the fact that I live out of state, or something else entirely. Any insights??

Keep looking for what you want and deserve. I'm happy to be forging a better path away from what I've had to endure.

Recruiter reached out a few weeks ago about an ER role. I don’t have the finance background but want to pivot. I had a first round interview that I thought I bombed but I got a second. Did a stock pitch that was fairly good, didn’t know all the technical questions tho. I followed up day of, and recruiter asked to have a quick chat next day. She asks me about salary & availability to start and says she’ll try and get an update from the team. I haven’t heard & im wondering if I got rejected
