[QUOTE="lawnoob, post: 112890, member: 9815"] Hi George, I'm currently in a 3-month contract position as an assistant in an M&BD department in a law firm, and it is completely WFH. In your advice you mentioned that in a law firm, even in a non-law position you could always network with lawyers if you make the effort. However, I've really not had any opportunity to speak to any lawyers as there hasn't been any opportunity to work with them. Would you say that I'm missing a big opportunity, or do you think it wouldn't be great to email them one-on-one and come across as too try-hard in trying to network? And if you were in this position, is there anything you would try do to make yourself stand out or get more from this position? [/QUOTE]
