More than 80% of top lawyers in Trump's administration have landed somewhere since he left office according to the Bloomberg article. OP chose to link to Hill Reporter (started by the resistance Kassenstein brothers and sold when they were kicked off Twitter), not to be confused with The Hill.

Soooo, prove how many in the list rattled off in your OP propaganda link had actually been turned down for work simply because they had worked in the Trump administration.
Leftist cancel culture means not being able to get a job because no one thinks you have good judgement?
Like John Eastman, Jenna Ellis or cleta what’s her name? Being cancelled does not mean you are a good lawyer.
Now Rudy really showed his lawyerly chops to the American public! Worth every penny he was paid.
Employers have the right to question a job candidate's judgment. These lawyers clearly demonstrated poor judgment on several levels. They probably were never paid for their services to Trump. I would not hire them. Maybe used car sales, televangelists, or flippin' burgers would work.
They were all paid, but not by Trump. We taxpayers paid them all for as long as they were on the official White House staff list.
All of them who were on the transition team and are still working for Trump will collect their government paychecks until July 21. That's the day when all the post-transition period expires.
That date will be the first day Trump will have to foot the wage bill. I'm sure he will let some of them go before then, and retain some others who are the most valuable to him now. By then their paychecks will have cost us around $2.2 million dollars.
Trump is no special case here. Every transition team gets the same perks, but the total wage amount varies, as most former Presidents don't milk the system as hard as Trump does. Usually,once a transition employee's job is finished, he's let go with a recommendation and some connections.
Traditionally, being a White House staffer makes finding a jb afterwards very easy. I'm surprised Trump's people are having trouble finding new jobs.
This sort of falls under the auspices of if you play the game you suffer the consequences. They include Attorney General William Barr, Jeffrey Rosen, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, and White House counsel Pat Cipollone.
Who wants to be tainted with have a lawyer on staff who worked for such a disgraced President? I really don't feel sorry for those people.
I'm willing to bet virtually no lawyer working for Reagan, Bush 1, Clinton, Bush 2 or Obama were ostracized. Why? Because none of those Presidents were toxic, like Trump was.
One of the requirements of being a lawyer ethics. These guys have none. Employers aren't stupid.
