[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spin the question. You're not exactly looking to leave, you just dont want to do it forever and are looking for the right opportunity. Anyone who has ever escaped a law firm will accept that a rational person might not want to stay on forever, but this is a perfect opportunity to tell them why their job is the right fit for you and vice versa. [/quote] This. Say that you're looking for a new challenge/opportunity. Talk about why you want this position in particular. They all will know that you were passed over for partner, but lots of great lawyers (some of whom will be interviewing you) understand that doesn't mean you're not an excellent. lawyer. But I would not talk about wanting better hours...that just will rub some people the wrong way. [/quote]
