The top 8 firms that don't experience as much volatility on vault. I don't want to risk not being in the v10 if possible, for obvious exit opps reasons.

First off, don't say "E8" to anyone who actually works at a law firm... v10 is a thing. E8 is definitely NOT a thing.

Second, just bidding up the v10 is not a smart way to do it. V10 correlates almost as much to size as it does prestige. As just one example, Paul Weiss (No. 11) is a far better firm than Skadden or Weil. You can easily get hired by the latter places, though I'm not sure why you would want to.

Consider these Vault rankings for prestigious lit boutiques:

Boies Schiller (No. 20)

Susman Godfrey (No. 53)

Keker & Van Nest (No. 90)

Kellogg, Huber, Hansen, Todd, Evans & Figel (No. 97)

You won't be working at any of those places.... and if you wanted exit options in D.C., your best bet is Williams & Connolly (No. 19) -- though they will not hire you either.

All of this is to say that the Chambers guide is a far better place to look for prestige. For exit options, figure out where you want to exit to, then work backwards. Like let's say you want to be in-house at a certain bank: use LinkedIn to look up where those people came from, and do searches on PACER to figure out the bank's go-to firms.
