<p>I am a headhunter in the DC/Baltimore market. You are right that it is really difficult to transition as a litigator into a non-litigation role, either in a law firm or a corporation. Personally, I think many firms and companies are short sighted in this regard but short sightedness is plentiful in the legal job market. There are lots of commercial litigators on the market right now so you have to do everything just right to land the job you want. Do you feel you are getting proper interview preparation from the recruiters you’re using?</p>
