    Amanda is an excellent and empowering legal recruiter! She was recommended by a good friend of mine and for good reason. She understood my goals and supported me throughout the lateral process. She also prepared me well for all my interviews and made me feel confident during them. Amanda is also very responsive and easy to talk to. She takes time to understand who you are, where you are, and where you want to be.
