Many people say looking for work is a full-time job.
I'm not one of those people. In good times and lean times, a sound set of lawyer's skills incorporates an affinity for project management. Thus, making the time for a quality job search need not, should not, and cannot distract you or detract from the job you are being paid to do. Prioritize activities in both your work and your search, and focus on shifting gears smoothly between the two. Identify assignments in your current workplace that you'd still really like to garner in order to enhance your base of experience, and reach out affirmatively to get those assignments.
