[quote=Anonymous]11:06 / 11:08 is great advice. The only thing I would add is, the people I knew who seemed to come out best from the 2008-2009 layoffs "rode" the law firm paycheck and letterhead as long as they could while completely dropping their billables to look for a job full-time. Easier said than done when you are senior and have ethical responsibilities to make sure your clients' work gets done. But I mention it because it can be so hard to get out of the mindset of staying late, billing time, mentoring summer associates, "maybe if I do a good job they'll keep me ...." Your job is to find a new job, nothing else. Good luck![/quote]
