Moving Day: Best Time to Look for a New Legal Position

Q. I am an associate attorney and I’m looking to relocate to Chicago next year. What is the best time of year to begin my job search?

A. There is no time like the present to begin your search. While many large firms fill their first-year associate needs in September/October through their law school campus interviewing and summer associate programs, lateral associate hiring is less cyclical and more reactive. It is true that most law firms put together their annual budgets, which include hiring requests from their most active practices, sometime between the end of the calendar year and the beginning of the new year, and that may spur Quarter 1 and early Quarter 2 hiring.
