Has anyone managed to stay remote in a senior role? I moved to a rising tech hub for a finance role, and now that I’m back on the market, I realize there are exactly three relevant companies here. If I don't get an offer from one of them, I have to sell my house and move back to NYC or something just to find a job. The decentralization of finance was a lie. If you aren't in a major hub, your career has a very low ceiling.

Yeah, I’ve seen people do it, but it definitely gets harder at the senior level. The higher up you go, the more roles seem to get tied to being in a major hub or at least being close enough to show up when needed. It does feel like remote opened things up for a while, then quietly started narrowing again. Best luck!

Tough situation. Experienced like this help you learn though. Hopefully it will work out for you.

It’s harder at a senior level for sure. At my company, they’re currently not letting remote people move up past a certain role which is unfortunate

Any advice on shifting from association law to commercial real estate in FL?

I've been applying to jobs for months but every position wants at least 2yrs of experience in real estate transactions, usually way more.

Seems like the only way to get the experience is to have nailed a big law gig right out of school and get put into that practice.
