You’re fine for timeline. It takes a while to actually find a spot so I’d recommend looking now. Might end up being at 1 YOE once you jump, which will look pretty normal on your resume.

I currently work at a medium sized firm and have about two years experience in personal injury litigation. The billable hours and lack of work life balance are really getting to me and I am looking to switch to something else out of litigation, preferably in house. I am also looking to relocate to a different state. How do I go about properly marketing myself to companies that might not take my relocation and minimal experience seriously?
