    Lily Johnson Cardona joined Goodwin Procter LLP's Boston office in the Corporate group.

    I had the pleasure of working with Evan during my recent job search for my lateral move from NYC to Boston. Evan's expertise and dedication were instrumental in helping me secure a fantastic opportunity. Throughout the entire process, Evan was highly responsive, and his professionalism and commitment were evident in his proactive communication and assistance in preparation for interviews. Evan provided valuable insights and guidance, which greatly contributed to my confidence and success during the interview process. Most of all, I appreciated Evan candor and honesty. He took the time to learn about my career objectives and find a firm that was the best fit for me.

    Why talk to Gregory Gambill?

    Rachael Walker joined Goodwin Procter LLP's Boston office in the Corporate group.

    I honestly cannot recommend Greg enough. I had a few specific concerns I wanted to address in my lateral move. Greg helped me prioritize positions that met the criteria I was looking for, and was candid about positions he didn't think would help me meet my career goals. He also gave invaluable advice for the interviews themselves. I'm not great at interviewing, and I honestly don't think I would have got the position I did without his guidance. I couldn't be happier with my move!
