ACC National Capital Region’s Post

If you're a lawyer feeling stuck in your career, then I wouldn't be surprised if.... ....you're looking around and thinking that other lawyers know what they want and have a plan, but you don’t so you’re worried you’re missing out. You keep listening to other lawyers, your family and your friends who have different priorities and perspectives and you focus on what’s important to them rather than what’s important to you. You scattergun your CV to recruiters and apply for random jobs, but get no invitations to interview. If this is you, you're not alone. I've helped 100s of lawyers at a crossroads in their career to plan their career strategy and feel empowered to take the next step that will bring them the long-term job satisfaction they deserve. I'm just a message or email away if you'd like to find out whether I can help you too. #careercoachingforlawyers #careersuccess #careerconfidence #legalcareers

Stop searching for jobs solely through job postings.. I found my post-grad job through cold emailing and meeting someone for coffee. Is this for everyone? Maybe not. Maybe the idea of cold emailing scares you.. But, you don’t grow from your comfort zone. Anyway, here’s what happened for me: I researched employment law and civil litigation attorneys in my area (with no agenda, just an interest in learning the day-to-day life of a civil litigator). The attorney that I emailed responded, and we ended up meeting for coffee. She explained her firm had an L&E team and offered to pass on my resume. She then connected me with another partner at her firm (coincidentally this partner and I had already been connected through social media). That same day, I was talking to a classmate that coincidentally worked at said firm (he offered to put in a good word for me). A couple weeks later, a partner on the L&E team called me for an interview. About a week and a half after, I was called and offered a post-grad position. I share this for two reasons: (1) always treat people well because you have no idea who will end up working where (also just be a good person and treat people well in general); (2) network, network, and then network some more because you have no idea what doors might open. #law #legalfield #attorney

Good morning people! Sometimes I scroll through the classified ads and job postings, and I’m always sort of miffed by the postings that have been up for more than 30 days. I’m especially amused by the postings that I’ve seen reposted multiple times over the last year or so. Companies are looking for a person with 3 to 5 years of experience, or more. In the legal field, they may want the person to bring a small book of business with them. I’m no genius, and I’m a bit cynical at times, but I always wonder if it wouldn’t have just been easier to get a first or second year lawyer, train them for two or three years, and then you have that person with 3 to 5 years of experience right there in your ranks. The position is filled. Remove the job posting. #ownyourcareer #professionaldevelopment #younglawyers #lawstudents #youngprofessionals
