Hi, I have a law clerk diploma, 8 months of Canadian work experience (4 months in placement & 4 months at a real estate firm), & 8 years of international judicial clerk experience. Despite this, breaking into the Canadian legal industry is tough, With most jobs requiring 3+ years of experience & LinkedIn networking hasn’t worked well. Though I’ve had interviews, roles were filled internally. It’s been 4 months, and I’m feeling stressed and unsure how to proceed. Any advice would be appreciated!

Moving to NYC from DC. I had planned to come up for a weekend or two to tour apartments. When would be the best time? I thought about a month ahead of needing to move - and then coming back a weekend or two later - would make sense. But I am seeing so many listings on StreetEasy that say the unit is available immediately. Any advice? I have a cat so trying to avoid moving into a temporary Airbnb in between to apartment hunt, as I’ve seen some people suggest.

Little context: I was an ED student, full time paralegal/clerk throughout my law school experience, and a single mother. I did not take advantage of the law school extracurriculars and missed out on clerk application deadlines my final year (2020).
