    Why talk to Zsaleh Harivandi?

    Nikta Daijavad joined Gunderson Dettmer Stough Villeneuve Franklin & Hachigian LLP's San Diego office in the Corporate group.

    I have nothing but wonderful things to say about my experience working with Zsaleh. I reached out to Zsaleh as an associate at a boutique firm in New York, looking to lateral to a BigLaw firm in California. I knew my search would be challenging, and I was feeling pretty nervous going into it - but Zsaleh made me feel optimistic from the moment we met. She was so exceptionally organized and had such a vast network of connections throughout California that I felt like I was in excellent hands throughout the entire process. She was also so communicative, giving me regular updates on all of my outstanding applications, and she was a huge help when I was preparing for interviews. Zsaleh played such a crucial role in me landing my dream role, and I can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you for everything, Zsaleh!

    Why talk to Dale Durham?

    Tar Rakhra joined Gunderson Dettmer Stough Villeneuve Franklin & Hachigian LLP's Los Angeles office in the Corporate group.

    When you begin a career as an attorney, it is almost immediately that you begin getting contacted by recruiters. As a young attorney you are unsure how to navigate the idea of having a "career" and understanding what opportunities are out there for you. I am very fortunate to have worked with Dale on a recent transition. Dale began his process by understanding what my long and short-term career goals were. With this understanding, he went beyond the role of a recruiter and served also a career coach presenting me with a more holistic perspective on the roles I was looking for. Throughout the process, he constantly checked in to ensure that the process could go as smooth as it could be. At the end of the process, he served in neutrality as I made a decision, only reminding me of the career goals I had shared with him in the beginning. I could not recommend him more highly to guide you through your transitions.

    Why talk to Vijay Sandal, Esq.?

    Ally Kaleita joined Gunderson Dettmer Stough Villeneuve Franklin & Hachigian LLP's New York City office in the Corporate group.

    From my very first phone call with Vijay, I knew that he was a sharp professional, had an extensive understanding of the legal market, and was someone I would feel comfortable working with throughout my lateral career search. Over the course of a few weeks, Vijay truly became a coach, a teammate, and a confidant all in one. Vijay made sure I was extremely well prepared for each step of the process. He spent a lot of time talking me through the logistics, answering my questions, and strategizing with me. More importantly, during every conversation with Vijay, I felt supported and guided. When I had to make tough decisions, Vijay was there to bounce ideas off of, to help me work through my thoughts, and to offer his insight. Vijay’s impressive knowledge of and experience with the legal profession make him a great recruiter, but what really sets him apart is his ability to connect with people on a level that goes deeper than the surface. I truly felt like Vijay cared about me, my future, and my goals. He went above and beyond to make my experience as positive and successful as possible. I highly recommend Vijay to anyone who is considering making a career move in the legal field. I wholeheartedly believe that working with Vijay is the best decision you can make. I am so grateful to have worked with him and am very thankful for all that he did to help me pursue my dreams.
