[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry. I think the in-house counsel job is the holy grail of legal jobs and that makes them so competitive and hard to get- you are competing with people trying to bail from law firms, people trying to leave govt to make more money, people switching from one in house gig to another... Its brutal. There are a lot of very small companies that don't have in house counsel and outsource everything. Maybe you can find a niche advising those small companies. [/quote] So then what do experienced in house lawyers do? Unlike lawyers trying to bail out of a law firm to in-house, it's very hard to go the other way because firms want specialized expertise (and clients), not general experience and business acumen. [/quote] This is what I was going to say too. In my experience companies want in house lawyers with a specific background (entertainment, real estate, insurance etc) as opposed to general corporate.[/quote]
