Frequently asked questions

What is Pivot In‑House?

Pivot In‑House is a legal career coaching practice led by Jonathon Roth, a former Jones Day litigator and current senior in‑house attorney at Fortune Global 500 company. We help lawyers and law students pursue in‑house roles with clear strategy, résumé/LinkedIn optimization, and interview preparation.

What sets Pivot In-House apart?

Insider perspective from both sides of the table. Jonathon trained at an Am Law 15 firm, successfully moved in‑house, and understands the needs and hiring practices of legal departments. Coaching is candid and market‑aware, focusing on what in‑house teams actually screen for, how to translate law‑firm achievements into business impact, and how to communicate with executive presence so your materials and interviews resonate.

Who do you work with?

Law firm associates, law students, and early in‑house counsel seeking advancement. We work across industries (financial services, technology, consumer, and more) and practice areas to help translate experience for corporate roles.

What services do you offer?

Three core areas: Strategy & Positioning, Résumé Review & LinkedIn Optimization, and Interview Prep. Engagements are tailored—from focused 30-minute sessions to more comprehensive evaluations. See our Services page for examples.

How does pricing work? Do you offer packages?

Pricing is provided after you contact us so we can assess goals and scope. Packages (e.g., resume writing and interview preparation) are available. Start here: Book a Consultation.

Do you offer a free intro call?

We're glad to offer a free introductory call. In our contact form, note your timing and needs.

Is this legal advice?

No. We provide career coaching, not legal services or legal advice. Working with us does not create an attorney‑client relationship.

Do you guarantee interviews or offers?

Like any lawyer, we can’t make guarantees, but our candid, actionable feedback and hiring-manager insights consistently strengthen clients’ materials, positioning, and interview performance for in-house roles.

How are sessions delivered? Do you meet after hours?

Sessions are delivered remotely via videoconference (or phone if you prefer). Evening and weekend appointments are available and we’ll work to accommodate schedules where possible.
