@llama I find that article sort of contradictory. If every starts lateral-hiring there would quickly be a wide gap in available talent that needs correcting which would lead to surges in entry-level hiring, especially by the time we graduate

@SailingSomewhere: 10 ppl move up a ladder rung/ 10 players lateraling musical chairs, sore there are more moves, but does that mean there are more realistic openings? Asking because I see your point but at the same time, moving jobs is part of the new culture, I think the avg person will have 4? careers, and statistically the best way to employee max is to move every 2-5 years. I am unsure as I have never worked as an attorney, nor do I have direct knowledge or connections that could confirm or deny besides for saying ymmv/ each takes a dif path.
