hard to make it look great with just 1 year, but don't try to oversell. Just highlight some projects/clients/duties that were yours during the year. Among other things of course.

Size of clients you've worked on, standards you are familiar with/tested against (AICPA, PCAOB), Areas of the audit you've worked on/testing areas (capital, investments, valuation), big wins or finds e.g. issues you've discovered or processes you've assisted with changing , who you engaged with internally or externally, certifications.

For those of you who made the switch to in house/corporate law, what was your experience like? Did you have to take a lower position to gain the experience or were you able to argue that your soft skills were transferable to in house? I’ve been in litigation for 15 years and I’m looking to make the switch. Ultimately, I’d like to get into Legal Ops, but feel getting some in house experience first would be beneficial.
