Question: I’m deep in the interview process for a new job, but just received a big raise from my current employer. So I’d like to withdraw my candidacy. How do I do so without burning a bridge?
Answer: There are several factors that can influence a lawyer to enter the job market and pursue his/her next opportunity. One of them…is money. Being paid “too little” can lead a lawyer to believe s/he is undervalued, unappreciated and unheard. These feelings can breed resentment, which starts setting in and escalates until a boiling point is reached. It is at this time, a lawyer makes the decision to explore the market and confirm what his or her value is…or is not.
