Courtney Wax Lewis joined Kirkland & Ellis LLP in Austin
I have nothing but great things to say about my experience working with Max. My job search involved relocating from New York to Texas, and he made the entire process feel seamless. He goes above and beyond, leveraging relationships with partners at top law firms to help get your foot in the door. Max was very helpful in terms of interview prep, and he consistently followed up at every stage of the process, including check-ins even after I accepted my offer. He genuinely cares about the people he works with. I highly recommend Max to anyone who is serious about making a career move.
Dylan White joined Kirkland & Ellis LLP in Houston
It was an absolute pleasure working with Ren; he is an amazing recruiter. His insight into the lateral market and his connections at top-tier firms made the lateral process smooth. The lateral process can be a stressful process, however, Ren provided guidance throughout all phases of the process, which made the process far less stressful. I strongly recommend Ren to anyone considering a move!
