Where to look for in -house legal jobs?

[Anonymous]

I've worked 10+ years doing litigation and beginning to feel burned out. I would like to transition to an in-house or government position for a change of pace and new experience. Where should I look?

for in house, try the Association of Corporate Counsel site - it has listings for in house positions

Linkedin has listings also.

Make sure your profile on LInked in is up-to-date and check regularly to link yourself to your contacts (new people are constantly joining and coming online to Linked In). Linked In has a kind of newsfeed that includes a lot of job postings - they are targeted and honestly, are pretty good at figuring out what positions you might fit.

And . . . I am in-house now, was actually approached for my current job by a former colleague through an email sent via Linked In.

Many companies list job postings directly on their websites. It can be tedious to look through though.

This headhunter's website lists in-house openings:

Fair warning: there are far fewer openings in-house for litigators than for transactional lawyers. Not saying they don't exist, but they are rarer. One idea is, if you have litigated within a certain industry, is to target companies/trade groups within that industry to show the transferability of your skills.

Any recommendations for recruiters that specialize in litigators that want to move in house in the DC area? TIA.
