    Rhea truly goes above and beyond as a recruiter. From the first moment we spoke she was so attentive to ensuring that she wasn’t just placing me at a job with an opening where I would do well, but that the job also gave me everything I was looking for. She was involved in every step of the interviewing and hiring process, from helping with preparation for all of my interviews, which included a ton of information and some of the most thoughtful interview questions I’ve ever seen, to debriefing after each interview, to keeping me updated on where we were in the process, and finally helping me with completing the hiring process. She truly tailored the experience to me and made the process so seamless and enjoyable. Rhea is an absolute joy to work with!

    Why talk to Susan Belardi?

    Regina L. DeSantis joined Cooley LLP's District of Columbia office in the Health Care group.

    If you are looking to make a lateral move, or even just thinking about it, you need to speak with Susan. When you work with Susan, you don’t simply get a recruiter—you get a consultant, a mentor, a counselor, and a friend. Susan’s knowledge of the legal market knows no limits, and she has expertise that can only be acquired from years of being at the top of her field. Moreover, Susan is an absolute delight to work with, and her positivity and enthusiasm make the process enjoyable! From my first phone call with Susan, it was clear that she is in a class all her own. Susan took the time to discuss my background, listen to my priorities and career goals, and get to know me as a person. I am a regulatory health attorney, and my practice area is very specific. Susan never pushed me toward a role for the sake of it—instead, Susan sought my input to make sure that we focused on my exact area of health law. Susan is 100% invested in her candidates, and it shows. She coached me through each step, from perfecting my resume to rigorously preparing me for every single interview. Susan's dedication to her candidates goes above and beyond professional guidance and mentorship—she always made time for me, no matter how seemingly minor my question might have been, and she remained engaged and accessible throughout the process. Thanks to Susan, I am in the perfect role. I am grateful that Susan was my recruiter and legal placement consultant, and I am even more fortunate to call her my mentor and friend. I cannot recommend Susan highly enough!

    Evan is extremely knowledgeable about the legal job market and its major players and processes.

    Why talk to Steven G. Weiler?

    Ryan Migeed joined Mayer Brown LLP's District of Columbia office in the Litigation group.

    There are so many reasons I would recommend working with Steven as you take the next steps in your legal career. Above all, I appreciated Steven’s knowledge, personal touch, and respect for the ways in which I wanted to shape my career as we worked together to find my next step. Steven has a deep knowledge of the legal market and an active “rolodex” of contacts who trust his judgment when he recommends candidates for open roles. These are reasons enough to entrust your next career move to Steven’s guidance, but Steven is also a joy to work with, someone who will get to know you as a person and will help bring out your best qualities as an applicant. Steven is there for you every step of the process. Lateraling can be daunting and questions undoubtedly arise. Steven was a trusted confidant and I always felt comfortable seeking his advice. He never forgets the person behind the application; in fact, he works to draw that person out so that they can put their best foot forward, confident in who they are and how they fit into a new role. Steven helped me build the confidence to take the next step in my career. He also checks in with you. You are never left hanging or waiting to learn information from him. He will keep you as informed as he is. He is your partner in the process, not someone who simply clicks “submit” when your application is ready. Perhaps most importantly, while he is a steady guide throughout the process, Steven also respects your choices and redlines and the ways in which you want to shape your career. He listens when you explain what you are looking for and he remembers details. If you want to remove particular roles from consideration because of the direction in which you are trying to drive your career, he accepts and respects those considerations. He does not push you to make a deal or accept an offer simply because it’s there. He wants the best fit for you just as much as you do. I highly recommend working with Steven to take the next step in your legal career.

    Jack was incredibly helpful, responsive and professional in my lateral job search. He listened intently to my interests and planned career goals, and then went above and beyond to help me network and build connections to get there. He reached out to partner contacts with similar interests, even when an open position was not listed, which helped me find a unique position that was created and tailored just for me. This would not have been possible without Jack. I would highly recommend working with him to anyone in my network!
