Why didn't Neji get his own team of Genin when he became a Jonin?

That is a simple answer he was not a supervising jonin or an instructor he was just a jonin there are a lot of jonin in the leaf and not all are instructor and don't have a genin squad

Shino having genin squad wasn't in the manga/canon so theoretically he doesn't have it.

In regards to OP, maybe he was too young? He would have probably eventually got it.

Neji became Jounin at like 16 or 17, he is too young to get his own team of genin. Kakashi turned Jounin at like 13 but he probably didnt get his own genin (trying out to get his own groups because he failed them all) until like 21 or 22. Let's not forget his was an Anbu for a long time

Neji was likely a S-jounin(Special Jounin). They're simply promoted to that rank because of their skills. They're not ready for the leadership role. Which is what Kakashi was awarded when Minato was his leader.

Kakashi's first team was Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura. Though, it's not his first opportunity. He states clearly in one of those pages that they were the firsts to pass his test.

You can't really know that. While it's more logical to decide he's a S-Jounin as he has no squad. Nor does Genma.

S-Jounin (Without Squad)
Genma
Neji
Ibiki
Ebisu

Jounin (With a Squad)
Gai
Kakashi
Asuma
Kurenai

S-Jounin simply means they're masters at their abilities. In neji's case, he's a master at Konoha's exclusive byakugan club(lol). Lets use logic here. *_*

man kakshi became jounin when he was 13 years old but he didn't het his own gennin team;)
about Genma manga said that Genma is special jounin and about Neji manga said taht Neji is jounin(not special Joiunin)

and it is not important if u are S-jounin or jounin to make gennin team;) Ebisu agrees;)

Just use actual logic to answer these questions... Kakashi didn't have a squad because he was like 13. A 13 year old teaching 11 year olds. Come on... :|

1. Ebisu doesn't have a team pre-time skip. During the time skip he gets his team, which means he won't be an S-Jounin. S-Jounin means you're also a subordinate of another Jounin. After the time skip he's a Jounin.

2. Kakashi didn't have his own team before team 7 because all others had failed:
