Asian American Career Ceilings “An Advice and Networking Event (Legal)”

We are pleased to invite you to the 58th event organized by the Committee of 100 Asian American Career Ceilings Initiative. This virtual event will enable Asian Americans who are in the early to mid-stages of their careers to get valuable advice from experienced and successful Asian Americans in the legal industry. We have been holding this event for different professions in the past and will continue to do so in the future.

We will start with welcoming comments and introduction to the advisors, followed by virtual breakout rooms where the experienced Asian American advisors will host individual breakout rooms that attendees can join. The attendees will have a list of the experienced advisors in advance and will be able to choose which breakout rooms they want to visit to get career advice and to ask questions. The attendees will be able to move from room to room as they wish.

This will be a unique opportunity to explore career paths in the legal profession with experienced practitioners, at law firms or in-house, and make personal connections. Discussions will be frank and informative as each breakout room host will answer your questions and share personal insights and their stories of succeeding in the legal career.

We hope this event will help those of you who are getting ready to start your summer associate program, about to join law firms in the fall, or are junior or mid-level practitioners to enhance your career planning. We hope that this event will help you overcome obstacles and accelerate your careers.
