Why Federal Talent Matters: A Three-Part Career Transition Series
Sponsored by: WBA Government Attorneys Subcommittee
Co-sponsor: FedsForward
In this concluding session of the series, a panel of private sector hiring managers will share firsthand insights on why attorneys with government experience are in high demand. Panelists will highlight the value of federal talent from the law firm and in-house legal perspective, including subject matter expertise, regulatory acumen, and leadership developed through public service.
The discussion will also explore how government attorneys at different career stages—junior to senior—can effectively position themselves for private-sector and other roles. Attendees will gain practical guidance on self-marketing strategies, including how to craft compelling professional narratives and tailor their experience to align with private-sector needs.
This dynamic session offers an opportunity to hear directly from decision-makers about what they look for when hiring former government attorneys—and how to stand out in a competitive legal market.
The session will conclude with a summary of how you can use the FedsForward AI-powered Platform to rediscover your key skills and translate those into any new role you may seek.
Speaker:
Mara Senn, Former Global Executive Compliance Leader, GE Healthcare
