hello dudes. so i just moved and thus stopped my previous volunteer position, which i loved and am bummed is over, but i digress.

clinical volunteering: 1 year, 110 hrs
non clinical underserved volunteer position - 1 school year (sept-june) 50 hrs, just ended that in june when i moved

i probably will end up doing something anywho, but since the ii's have dribbled in, how strongly recommended is it to get something going soon? i've got hella work and now travel to those interviews so i'm just hesitant to commit to something since juggling n whatnot

thanks everyone, you're all the best
 
Considering schools must have looked at your secondary application to give you IIs, I don't think it is NECESSARY for you to find another position right now. However, I am sure it will help when/if they ask, "so, what are you doing now to improve your application?" or you are not successful this cycle. But, idk if they will ask that.
Either way, you can always say you are looking into volunteering more or finding a part time job. That's not lying, I think.

But, what do I know. I'm applying to schools just like you are. I just haven't moved and kept a clinical related job for past 2.5 years.
