Why talk to Kallum (Kally) Challenger?
David Nicolardi joined Freshfields's District of Columbia office in the Investment Funds group.
Kally is knowledgeable about the legal market, and appropriately proactive with employers. Kally was attentive and took the time to listen to my objectives, and most importantly I always felt that she was acting in my best interest.

Freshfields • District of ColumbiaWhy talk to Khurram Naik?
Kaylynn Moss joined Freshfields's District of Columbia office in the Antitrust group.
When I initially reached out to Khurram, I was struggling with whether I was willing to switch law firms and whether there was truly another firm out there that would be the fit I was looking for. Khurram took the time to listen to what I was looking for and the priorities in my career, he helped me reflect on both the pros and cons of making a move, which firms might be the right fit, and genuinely felt more like a career coach at times which is exactly what I needed! It took me several more months to finally decide to start the process to make the move, but in the interim Khurram continued to be a sounding board and never was pushing me to leave prematurely but rather was someone I could rely on for an honest opinion. I'm also not sure how I would have survived the interview process without him! He was very communicative and proactive and made sure the process kept moving on all ends. Switching law firms can be a stressful process and does not happen overnight. It also can be isolating because you hold the decision close while you progress through the process and decide on the right move. I learned the incredibly positive impact a truly great recruiter can have in counteracting all of this. Khurram's input and expertise throughout the past several months leaves me feeling certain that I've truly considered all my options and I'm moving to the firm best for me, my family, and the career I want to develop. I will continue to refer him to everyone in search of a recruiter in the legal field!
