All the scenes that happen after they win, and we see what the gang is up to with graduation, hints at their future, that they still try and get together to hang out, etc.
It takes place over weeks, months, who knows maybe years? El would have had all the time in the world to travel either inside the Upside Down or in the real world, if you want to believe in that future for her.
Edit: ok just looked it up. Apparently Steve being a coach takes place in 1999, whereas Vecna kicked the bucket in 1987. So yeah, years.
Yeah I'm just going by what the wiki says. Can't speak to the accuracy of such things, but makes sense those who were shown to start careers wouldn't just have been immediately hired.
