Second Interview…

I just got a call from HR and I made it to the second round of interviews for the position at the Bank. This is excellent and welcome news especially since it’s my hope that this job will open doors for me in the restructuring / bankruptcy area of the law in the future.

I will keep you posted on how things go but the position will earn me no less than $90k/ year which will be a significant boost in income from my current $55k salary.

On a side note, my current manager is making me give up my flex schedule now that law school is over. While I knew it was coming, it is and was my hope that I would land a different position before having to return to a full five day workweek. I have the 4-day schedule for another month so I am hoping to make my transition to the new position within that timeframe. Besides, we’ve been so busy that most weeks, I end up working 5 days anyway and working late.

I'm sending good thoughts your way!!! I'm curious....do you know how much $90K works out to be if you're paid bi-weekly? I'm currently making $57,500and I am trying to get a new job that will pay at least $85 or $90K (I'm grossly underpaid for my industry and planning on changing that!)

Thanks!

That's so great! Law school is turning out to be a terrific investment with that potential new salary. =)
