My long term plan is dream is to work in a full-service law firm in tmt. I am giving interviews for IP Law firms and some tmt tier 2 firms as well as my IMMEDIATE PRIORITY is to get in a good environment (non-toxic). I have been offered a position in a in-house consultancy firm with decent pay and good culture but I am confused as the JD for this role is more of commercial contracts, general law etc.
I am desperately looking to leave my current workplace but confused if I should pass this in-house opportunity or shall I continue working here till I get a decent job in IPR/TMT.
P.s. the in-house position comes with 3 months notice period.
P.s.s. My cv and work ex are good and being selected in decent firms (T1 in IP & T2 in TMT) but efforts are somewhere less from my side as I am not hearing back after interviews.
