Hi all! Need some advice here. I'm a lawyer and there's a prominent tech company that's staffing up heavily on in-house lawyers. Even better, I just so happen to know one of the lead recruiters there, and she sent me two listings for positions that I'd love to have. The problem is that the positions are not in my current area of practice. I know I could learn that part of the law in a couple weeks or so, and I have tons of other qualifications that would make me great for the job. But I also know she could easily find someone else who already knows that part of the law, and I don't want to harm my credibility for future job openings by pretending to be someone I'm not. (I also don't want to seem desperate, because I'm not -- I have a job already.) That said, I love this company and would love to work there.
Here's what I think my options are, given that I'm friendly with the recruiter:
- Act like I already know the area and apply for the jobs anyway;
- Be honest with the recruiter that those jobs aren't technically my specialty, but that I'm confident I can learn it quickly and that I'd love to still be considered;
- Tell her that those jobs probably aren't right for me, but that I'd love to be considered for a future opening in my practice area.
Thoughts? Thanks so much!
