A recruiter suggested I should widen my search beyond the exact practice area I’m in because hiring is stronger in adjacent areas right now. The skills overlap, but I know legal hiring can get very specific fast. Did anyone successfully use one practice area to move into another without it feeling like a reset?

In talks with A&M to come over to their TAG practice from EY FDD as senior associate. Base salary is very competitive on top of the alluring "bonus" structure. 2 questions:

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
