Jonathan Trebble-Greening joined Fried Frank’s District of Columbia office in the Investment Funds group.
Bryson is what everyone wants in a recruiter. From his first message to his interview preparation to his handling of offers, Bryson provided detailed information about every law firm (including detailed information about each interviewer + testimonials where available) and how each offer compared to what was going on in the market. He never hid the ball and was really helpful at getting interviews scheduled around my packed big law calendar. He is particularly well-versed in minority representation at firms which is an added bonus if that impacts you, and I know it is something that I always take into consideration when looking at a workplace. I’d use his services again - he’s really top-notch!

I highly recommend Evan. He makes the lateral search process so much easier by taking the time to understand the candidate's needs and provide a tailored list of firms to apply to.
