The midlevel associate years are exciting: the learning curve has leveled off and you feel like you know what you’re doing (at least some of the time). Your responsibilities increase, and you tend to have more control over your schedule. At the same time, it can be really stressful! In addition to the work you are assigned from senior lawyers, you have your own projects to manage, including delegating to junior associates and staff. Your personal responsibilities may be greater, and the pressure mounts to consider what’s next. Do you want to stay at your firm and make partner? Or move on to something else?
To help you manage your day-to-day working life as a midlevel associate and think critically about and plan for your long-term career, I have created Managing as a Midlevel, a self-paced, online course.
