[quote=Anonymous]Do you personally know people (e.g. former colleagues) who have moved from any of the many fields you listed into something more lucrative? (If you are as well-traveled professionally as you say, you must.) Call them up, ask them to coffee, find out how they made the transition, whether they like it, etc. If the work sounds interesting, ask them to let you know about any similar job openings they hear about, either at their employer or elsewhere. Join Linkedin if you haven't already. Try to tweak your profile information so that the Linkedin job search function starts generating the kind of openings that you find interesting. Those listings are useful as a way to see what firms are out there and which ones are hiring, even if the particular job listed isn't of interest to you, is too junior, etc. DC is a networking town. So network! Good luck![/quote]
