Invited to a retreat
Posted: Tue Feb 06, 2018 3:37 pm
Hi all,
I’m a first year at a NY big law firm. One particular group/partner keeps inviting me to social events, including the group’s annual (non- work related) retreat. I’ve done a few projects for this group. I feel like it’s a bad idea to be rebuffing any connections w partners who seem to like me, but I’m worried I’m closing myself off to others praftice groups by continuing to accept these invites. The firm I’m at gives you ~1-2 yrs to land in a specific group after starting as a general lit associate. Any thoughts here?
