It's much easier to get a new job if you currently have a job. I'm in a similar situation. I was a corp./securities associate and have been out for over a year.
How did you get an offer for a different practice area? Was it a personal connection?

Yea, I got the job through a personal connection. But I only had a couple of years of experience anyway in my other field. That's what stinks about BIGLAW - they put me in a practice area I didn't want to be in when I graduated and I hated it. Moved to a different practice area but then that industry slowed down. It's not like it's that hard to learn a new practice area anyway but it seems difficult to lateral over into a new area especially in this economy.
