Would you be willing to move to San Diego to practice family law for a nonprofit?

like

Unfortunately probably not. I'm taking the UBE and I am unsure if California is a UBE jurisdiction, and I have probably missed the filing deadline for the California bar. (If I remember correctly from classmates.) Additionally, I'm not sure I'm in the position to move to a HCOL jurisdiction without significant compensation. But if you're so inclined, and know of anyone else that may be aware of openings or looking for entry-level associates in Maryland, PA, or DC, please feel free to refer my interest in PI and nonprofit work. I deeply appreciate you taking the time to generously express interest in my post regardless!

Additionally to any readers: Maryland locations will also be considered.

Currently going through some negations on an internal role. I’m currently at 88k and they offered me 100k for a position that requires a lot more work. Do you guys think it’s easier to land a higher salary when applying externally rather than internally? Also this is for a territory sales management role. They stated 120k+ is extremely high for that role. What do you guys think? Playing the game?
