is it really that hard for big law V100, or regional NLJ250 3-5 year corporate associates to go in-house? |

The in-house promised land, hard.
Oh, and if you're a litigator, damn near impossible. |

Talking to a recruiter I am working with and based on anecdotal evidence, I think 6-12 months seems to be what it is taking people to get a good inhouse job. I am waiting for something that pays a bit better, so it may take me closer to a year, or perhaps more. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2708184&forum_id=2#26586724) |

I think it helped to hear what others who were successful had done, and there was some direct and indirect networking benefit as well. But the single best thing you can do is to try to develop networking contacts who will submit and vouch for you at the company where you want to work.

Date: October 25th, 2014 7:29 PM Author: gaped roommate crackhouse Probably the singular best bet for getting an in-house job from biglaw these days, assuming you have substantive experience and have a technical background.
However, the question is what kind of job you're hoping for. Getting a really awesome job with a great company where you have great pay and real responsibility is still a massive challenge. |

Date: October 25th, 2014 10:21 PM Author: cerebral bbw turdskin Indeed. And technical background meaning your practice area? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2708184&forum_id=2#26586736) |

Date: October 25th, 2014 10:32 PM Author: gaped roommate crackhouse I mean something like tech transactions as the practice area with CS or EE or advanced chem/bio all work well. It isn't absolutely necessary for tech trans work but it is a huge plus. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2708184&forum_id=2#26586838) |

Date: October 25th, 2014 12:09 AM Author: cerebral bbw turdskin Transactional or regulatory. 3 years is a bit on the low side. I think 5 years is going to offer more opportunities. Echo the sentiment mentioned above that there is a 1 year lead time. Seems to be the case with everyone I know who went inhouse this year.
