[quote=Anonymous]I was laid-off from my mid-level in-house counsel job when my company was acquired. After eight months of looking for a comparable position, I haven't found anything. The market seems extremely tight. More recently I've applied for some more junior positions, but haven't had much traction because hiring managers may assume that, if hired, I'd keep looking until I found something more in line with my experience. Although I had worked in a law firm before going in house, the firm route doesn't seem too viable. What makes me effective in-house -- broad experience in many matters relevant to a company's legal needs (SEC, IP, M&A, litigation, contracts, HR) -- is not the specialized experience that firms typically sell. Has anyone faced a similar situation? What did you do?[/quote]
