I'm a 3L at lower T14 in top 5% who wants to switch from LA/TX/Chi to NY because of SO moving for work. Accepted offer from 2L firm to return. I didn't end up with anything in the section I want through 3L OCI. Looking for top transactional practices in NY. I want to apply again to try and move as soon as possible. My impression is that most lateral hiring takes place in January. I was just wondering if anyone had gone through this process and had any comments in general or about these particular points:
Should i apply during the summer after the bar? Wait until I start work? Wait until after I finish my stub year and potentially until the following October/November to leave after (hopefully) the first year bonus?
How do you interview after you've started?
I would likely have to take two bars in short succession, does that raise any issues?
Does this make me look like a flight risk? In my opinion, a switch between markets to NY and based on SO moving should be acceptable.
Just posting this now on the off chance that anyone is going through this process currently and sees it.

does this even count as "lateralling"? you have no skills and no job experience. you can't even put your future job on your resume I don't think, although maybe you could be creative and list "future employment" or some nonsense to show someone wanted to hire you when you were a rising 2L.
As best I can tell, you're just joining the pool of people without biglaw jobs, and you should treat the process as such.
