We know it’s tough to start a new job—no matter how well you like the people and the new company. Just learning where to find the coffee and envelopes can be difficult. With that in mind we try to make the transition as easy as possible for you. After talking to our lateral attorneys about their initial needs, we designed an extensive orientation and integration program. Our program includes:

• A first-day orientation to help you learn the “nuts and bolts” of Quarles & Brady LLP.
  
  
• A comprehensive lateral orientation manual to help you remember what you learned in your first-day orientation.
  
  
• A mentor to help you with any questions and introduce you to other lawyers around the Firm.
  
  
• A series of lunches with Firm committee members to discuss such topics as:
  
  
  • Compensation system.
  • Time charges and billing.
  • CLE policy.
  • Initiating new matters.
  • Pro bono.
  • Diversity goals and activities.
  • Client development.
  • Training programs and progression to partnership.
    
    
• The entire integration program happens over a period of two to three months. The variety of people you meet during this program and the information you learn get you off to a terrific and effective start at Q&B.
