Quickfire in-house career mentoring – learnings from very different in-house careers

Conference MC Wilhelmina Shrimpton will facilitate a panel discussion on in-house careers – the good, the bad and the ugly.  Our three experienced in-house counsel have taken very different career paths and will share their learnings and reflections with you.  Experiences include working for Juno, as an academic and as a GM; working part time, full time and not at all; deciding to pass on opportunities and deciding to create them. Topics to be covered include creating, identifying and evaluating opportunities, pros and cons of technical legal roles and widened business roles, favourite mistake, gaining the right skills and qualifications, and how to balance and prioritise job, career and life.  Conference sponsor Niche Recruitment will help close the panel discussion with their observations on the current job market and future trends.  There will be plenty of time for questions from the audience.
