Moving cities in March, currently a 1st year, what's my plan?

Post by Anonymous User » Mon Dec 18, 2017 3:00 pm

I will be moving to a different city in March. I'm currently a stub year corporate associate at an NLJ 250 firm.

How should I plan my move so I land the closest to being on my feet? I'm planning on taking the bar in February and job hunting immediately after.

I'm assuming you absolutely have to move for some reason, but if not, you'd be best served by staying at your current firm for a year and then trying to lateral, especially if you want to stay in corporate (as most non-volume corporate work is done in big firms).
