Priya is an exceptional recruiter. She really listened to my criteria and only sent me open positions fitting what I wanted. She gave me excellent advice throughout the lateral process and was responsive, diligent, and encouraging. I am so happy with my new firm and cannot thank Priya enough for her help. I highly recommend Priya if you are looking to lateral!

Vijay from Sterling Clark Group is a true talent in the world of legal recruitment. With Vijay’s essential guidance and support, I secured a lucrative lateral offer in a tough economy.  Since our introductory exchanges, Vijay communicated with me in an uplifting yet realistic manner. He demonstrated a strong understanding of the legal field. He provided keen insight into various legal industries, law firm sizes, and feasible exit opportunities. Vijay’s knowledge base repeatedly proved to me that he understands the different shapes a legal career can take.  Vijay’s memory is sharp, and he clearly invests in the candidates he works with. Vijay took the initiative to speak with me candidly about my own career goals. He would thoughtfully weave those goals into the opportunities he carefully tailored and shared with me. As a diverse applicant, it was also important for me to work with a recruiter who was considerate of my background. Vijay proved more than capable of ensuring that the opportunities I considered provided meaningful programming and mentorship for diverse attorneys. During our meetings, Vijay showcased a keen and strategic approach to the lateral hiring process. Vijay works diligently to ensure that his clients lead with their very best. Vijay’s resume input urged me to step into the shoes of a reviewer. It allowed me to refine my language meaningfully. Vijay’s interview prep anticipated questions and workshopped my answers. This preparation allowed me to arrive at interviews with confidence. And at each turn, Vijay showed deep investment in my process. Vijay was eager to debrief interviews and he would offer worthwhile input based on his years of experience and industry exposure. These debriefs offered perspective on my candidacy and feedback to bring into later rounds. Vijay is a true advocate for his clients. He sparked meaningful reflection. He spoke with me from a place of relatability and genuine encouragement. He foresaw the contours of the interview and recruitment process that I could not have anticipated on my own. I benefited greatly from his efforts and ended this process feeling like he invested in me.

I'm so glad I worked with Jenny. She is an excellent legal recruiter who helped me navigate a move to a new firm and a new city. Jenny has wide firm knowledge, is quick to respond, and most importantly, is kind and fun to work with! I would absolutely recommend Jenny to lawyers looking to make a career move.

Great overall experience. I would highly recommend working with Kate!
