so i graduated in may 2024, took the Bar twice & passed in feb 2025. the issue is i haven't been able to secure a job since graduating. & i know having a license plays a huge part in the job search, but i've come up short (& not even receiving a reply) for fellowships, entry-level positions where you have time to obtain licensure, etc.

I really just want to know how to pivot from this position because i feel stuck (and a little helpless)! i thought my extracurriculars would help (law review, leadership positions, academic publication), but it hasn't. I even got my masters at the same time as my JD, because i thought it'd help make me more competitive. I'm waiting to be admitted to a jdx, but it's been months & things are still processing. if anyone has any advice, my ears are open. thx in advance
