Trying to make a shift into a new career/specific job title feels impossible right now. This job market in 2025 feels like the worst time to do so. If you haven’t already had the exact same job title as the one you’re applying for, I feel like you’re not even getting looked at, even if you are a strong candidate otherwise, have connections in the company, and reach out to the recruiter and/or hiring manager. Am I wrong?

I passed the bar exam on my first try (Oct 2020) and have only had a couple interviews out of the hundreds of applications I sent out. Any suggestions?

How is this salary from Deloitte ?
Deloitte GPS Consulting Financial & Enterprise Performance
2 year 10 months experience as an financial analyst in the industry. Deloitte has an offer of 86k coming in as a consulting analyst. Did not asked about signing bonus yet. Also received an industry offer of 91500.
According to recruiter, I’ll be a high level analyst and most likely be a C next year. Might not be able to match industry offer cus lack of experience to be a C yet.
