A recruiter contacted me about a solution architect position. I looked at their requirements and I may not be qualified for the role since I only have 1.5 years technical experience. However , it’s an exciting role, salary is almost double my current one, and it’s fully remote. It’s less likely I would get the role but any thoughts how I should respond to the email?

How would you ask to transfer to another office within your firm?

I lateraled from one firm in city A to another firm city B. During the interview process, I made a big deal about how I badly I wanted to be in B, despite only being barred in A. They hired me, paid for my bar courses, the works.

Now I find myself in a position where I need to leave B due to personal issues. Thinking of going to DCso I can just waive in.

It's been less than a year since I've joined; is it too soon to ask this?
