If you are open to a lateral move, it’s very important that your bio on your firm’s website accurately reflects your experience (assuming that you are able to provide input on your bio).With regard to headhunters, an accurate biography can do two things: (1) eliminate calls regarding positions that don’t match your background, and (2) encourage calls for positions that do.
This sounds like very basic advice, but it’s quite shocking how many attorneys will say to me, “Oh, my biography is so outdated - I have much more X or Y experience than is reflected there.”
Just something to think (and hopefully write) about.
