Applying nephrology fellowship without a nephrologist LOR

Hello
I’m a PGY2 applying nephrology
I come from a top-tier IM program. I have 4 nephrology related podium presentations and one ongoing project. I got strong letters from mentors who knew me well for the past two years (hospitalists and PCP) and a letter from my PD. However, I didn’t get a letter from a nephrologist.
I learned I wanted to do nephrology after my nephrology rotation early in PGY2. That rotation, I worked mostly 2-3 days with each attending so didn’t have a chance to build a connection. I started a research project with one nephrologist but he left the hospital

I’m applying to good programs but arguably lower tier than my home program because we’re moving to a different city

Will this be a red flag? Do you suggest I address it in my personal statement or leave it to the interview?

Thank you

Remote moonlighting opportunities

Hi
I’m going into PGY3. Now that I have a little extra time on my hands, I want to moonlight. I’m not looking for anything crazy just some extra cash for leisure
Anyone had any luck with remote/from home moonlighting opportunities like chart reviewing? I’ve been looking and I couldn’t find anything

I tried the contrast coverage but apparently, now they prefer radiology residents. I’m doing medicine

Thanks!
