The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is the world's largest organization serving the professional and business interests of attorneys who practice in the legal departments of corporations, associations, nonprofits and other private-sector organizations around the globe.
Navigating career shifts due to corporate reorganizations,

transition. We'll cover essentials like enhancing your personal branding,
optimizing your LinkedIn profile, refining your CV, mastering interview
techniques, and crafting effective networking plans.
The second
session will be a focused workshop to address your specific concerns and
provide pragmatic and actionable advice to help you secure your next role. Best
practice examples and templates will be provided.
