I’m at a bit of a career crossroads and could use some any advice. I’m currently a real estate attorney at a regional mid/big law firm. During law school I interned each summer (and worked during the school years) for a debt fund.
I’ve been working on a lot of cool deals drafting PSAs, leases, and other various documents on the transactional side of things and have good hours compared to most big law jobs, especially when considering the salary. But I’ve realized i miss the numbers side of things and I don’t want to be a lawyer / want to work in REPE or at a debt fund or some other similar role.
Problem is, I’m worried I'd have to take a big pay cut and don’t think I’d get much credit for having the law job on resume (I’ve been here about 7months). I’ve cold applied to some large REPE positions that were more associate level and got ghosted. Do I have a chance to break into a role that isn’t entry level / wouldn’t be the same as if I hadn’t gone to law school at all? During my time working at the debt fund in law school, I grew from being an intern to working part time in the school year to, by the end, working 40 hours a week and being the sole analyst on my team doing some pretty large construction and bridge loans. Any advice on next steps would be appreciated!
