I currently have a full-time role at a small law firm. I honestly don't know if I want to stay here or not, that's something I'm trying to figure out. But, I do want to learn about other options. Is it a good idea to submit my resume, go to job fairs, or reach out to interesting employers, or should you only do that if you're ready to start another job?

Exploring roles is the only way to definitively determine what makes you happy. I would advise some caution though. Law firms, especially those in the same field, can be a close community and people do talk to each other. Make sure whatever you do (if in the same field) is in confidence.

I appreciate your advice, you're definitely right. My city is hosting a job fair soon. I want to attend it to see if any law-related or JD-preferred positions could be a good fit, but I'm nervous about being caught!

yes definitely!! The job market is broken and has been for a while... I would start your search now as it may take some time to get noticed. You definitely want a role secured before leaving the law firm. Doesn't hurt to have a browse at new opportunities :)

I dont know if lack of PTO is a good reason to back out, is it?
