On this episode of Topping the Curve, I interview La-Toya Hackney, Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary of Saint-Gobain North America. La-Toya has previously served as in-house counsel at various levels and joined me to share her expertise on what it means to work in-house for a large company.
Throughout the episode La-Toya discusses her experience as a General Counsel and what her day-to-day and broader work life looks like. Topics include:
- How working in-house is different from a large firm
- How to start a career in-house and the interview process
- Key personal skills and qualities attorneys should develop to go in-house
- How to continue to work on career development while living your life
and much more!
