Assume no marketable skills pre-law.
Totally burned out. Want something with less of a burnout factor.

Not sure what you’re looking for. Any government job. You could be a janitor at a public school.

Non-political nonprofits (501(c)(3)) would fit the bill, but of course those mostly only exist in the DC area or other major cities, and the appetite you have for the position in question would vary wildly based on what their issue of choice is.

I am in CA, and had a few friends burn out and find various environmental organizations that pay peanuts, but qualify for PSLF and (to them) offered extremely satisfying work and low hours.
