    Why talk to Jessica Pai?

    Chelsea Zhang joined Baker Botts LLP's District of Columbia office in the Intellectual Property group.

    I had such a wonderful experience working with Jessica! She was super attentive to detail, remembered all my preferences, and tailored my job search to my goals. From resume review to prep sessions before the interview to second-eyeing thank you emails, Jessica was there to give solid tips and insider advice throughout the entire process. She is very knowledgeable about the IP world and was always accessible when I had any questions. She made me feel supported and at ease, and she never gave me any pressure to make decisions one way or the other. I would highly recommend working with Jessica!

    Why talk to Bryson Malcolm?

    Dominique Jones joined Paul Hastings LLP's New York City office in the Litigation group.

    Working with Bryson was a seamless process. After our first meeting he sent me a personalized spreadsheet of open positions that matched my interests, and sending regular updates for new openings. As we prepped for interviews, Bryson went above and beyond to provide me with information for each person I would be meeting with in one consolidated email. He highlighted important information that he thought would be most interesting and relevant to me for my meetings. He also summarized the firms' statistics, with a welcome emphasis on diversity statistics. Bryson has spent hours compiling statistics on the top law firms' diversity numbers, and this knowledge shows! Bryson handled all of the communications with firms for me, and was quick at scheduling interviews, and keeping all the firms I was interviewing with aware of my other options. I believe this helped me receive multiple offers in a short time frame. When I was weighing these options, Bryson reached out to his network of peers and friends for additional information on lifestyle and culture. All in all, Bryson goes the extra mile in his role as recruiter. I felt confident that he was preparing me to the highest degree for my interviews and callbacks. I would not hesitate to recommend him. Thank you Bryson!

He was incredibly responsive throughout — always quick to reply, keep me in the loop, and work around my schedule when things got hectic. What really stood out was how much genuine guidance he offered beyond just the logistics. He took the time to understand what I was actually looking for, gave honest and helpful advice at each step, and helped me think about each opportunity.

    Why talk to Max Bartram Esq.?

    Alfonso Sánchez-Eguíbar joined King & Spalding LLP's New York City office in the Litigation group.

    Max was hugely helpful in my search, proactively running opportunities by me, but also creating them from thin air. He's a talented recruiter and also a very kind, fun person to chat with. That personality goes far in terms of sourcing opportunities for his clients. Lastly, his level of care and diligence sets him far apart from the scores of recruiters that reach out to us daily.

    Steven G. Weiler

    Veritas Legal Consulting, LLC

    Why talk to Steven G. Weiler?

    Ryan Migeed joined Mayer Brown LLP's District of Columbia office in the Litigation group.

    There are so many reasons I would recommend working with Steven as you take the next steps in your legal career. Above all, I appreciated Steven’s knowledge, personal touch, and respect for the ways in which I wanted to shape my career as we worked together to find my next step. Steven has a deep knowledge of the legal market and an active “rolodex” of contacts who trust his judgment when he recommends candidates for open roles. These are reasons enough to entrust your next career move to Steven’s guidance, but Steven is also a joy to work with, someone who will get to know you as a person and will help bring out your best qualities as an applicant. Steven is there for you every step of the process. Lateraling can be daunting and questions undoubtedly arise. Steven was a trusted confidant and I always felt comfortable seeking his advice. He never forgets the person behind the application; in fact, he works to draw that person out so that they can put their best foot forward, confident in who they are and how they fit into a new role. Steven helped me build the confidence to take the next step in my career. He also checks in with you. You are never left hanging or waiting to learn information from him. He will keep you as informed as he is. He is your partner in the process, not someone who simply clicks “submit” when your application is ready. Perhaps most importantly, while he is a steady guide throughout the process, Steven also respects your choices and redlines and the ways in which you want to shape your career. He listens when you explain what you are looking for and he remembers details. If you want to remove particular roles from consideration because of the direction in which you are trying to drive your career, he accepts and respects those considerations. He does not push you to make a deal or accept an offer simply because it’s there. He wants the best fit for you just as much as you do. I highly recommend working with Steven to take the next step in your legal career.

    Freshwater Counsel

    Why talk to Khurram Naik?

    Saurabh Gupta joined Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP's District of Columbia office in the Intellectual Property group.

    In my interactions with Khurram, his approach truly stood out: he listens patiently, never pushes, and consistently aims for a genuine win-win outcome. He thoroughly discusses the pros and cons of all your options so you can trust his feedback, and he’s quick to understand your perspective. He’ll push on your behalf wherever possible but isn’t afraid to tell you if something isn’t practical. You still have to walk the path and make your case, but he’s there to guide you with a firm hand. I’ve seen how his insight and dedication lead to excellent opportunities that fulfill every requirement—and then some. I highly recommend Khurram and his team as recruiters who prioritize what matters most and deliver results.

    Katya Stynes joined Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP's New York City office in the Litigation group.

    I *highly* recommend working with Ed in your lateral search. Ed went above and beyond the standard listings (that every recruiter can arrange for you) to land on a truly unique and perfect opportunity, and then worked creatively and proactively to help me get the position. I'm now in exactly the team and practice area I hoped to end up in (a tiny niche area that I didn't think was realistic to find) and Ed was crucial in that process.

    Why talk to Susan Belardi?

    Sean Robinson joined DLA Piper's District of Columbia office in the Intellectual Property group.

    A chain of work colleagues put me in touch with Susan when I wanted to transition to a new position. Susan was extremely transparent about her process and asked for my explicit permission before contacting firms on my behalf, which gave me the chance to research firms and decide whether I felt the fit was right. Susan helped me learn information about firms and helped me practice my interview skills so I went into an interview confident and armed with knowledge that immediately struck a chord with the people who interviewed me. She never gave up on me, even when I got discouraged. I got a great job with DLA Piper thanks to Susan's hard work, and I'm extremely happy!
