With how wild recruiters are on LinkedIn looking to fill BD spots, I’m surprised there’s not more posts here with people asking for impressions on firms and departments.
If you’ve hopped around- what’s it like out there? Any real differences?

I certainly have heard there is! Haven’t hopped around but while the titles of BD positions at different big law firms may be the same, the duties vary significantly, with some firms having the role be very narrow and niche and other firms having that one person with their hands in lots of pots within the marketing department.

It’s similar to my firm. I’m the only person involved in various practices, which can be quite overwhelming when multiple groups are actively working on projects like webinars, events, and proposals. This often leaves me feeling scattered daily as I try to manage everything. Staying organized is challenging because every task is deemed urgent. I’m curious if other firms have someone specifically assigned to one practice group, focusing solely on business development and marketing for that group.

Is it the case here?

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything.

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks
