Exit Ops

Post by Anonymous User » Sat May 31, 2014 10:42 am

Rising 2L with a long-term goal of exiting private practice into the oil & gas industry, whether as a GC, executive position, or start-up. What's the best career track/practice group/experience I should be targeting?

Gun for Texas big law. Ideally, this is something you should have planned for already by this summer.

OP here. Already targeting Texas biglaw, just trying to figure out if I need to target specific areas or practice groups for the best experience (e.g M&A, venture capital, etc.)
