    Why talk to Amanda Finley, Esq.?

    Tyler Dysart joined King & Spalding LLP's Atlanta office in the Health Care group.

    I had an incredible experience with Amanda Finley of Lateral Match. After working with various recruiters for a couple of months and feeling like just another number, the difference with Amanda was very stark; when we had an interview scheduled on less than 24 hours' notice, Amanda dropped everything for 1:1 prep, which was integral in eventually landing that position! Amanda was there every step of the way with personalized advice and guidance, and I cannot recommend working with her enough. Thank you Amanda!
