Sidley Austin LLP • New York CityWhy talk to Ren Casey?
Jonathan Mitnick joined Sidley Austin LLP's Los Angeles office in the Restructuring group.
Ren was an amazing recruiter and resource through the recruiting process. I have spoken with and worked with many recruiters, and Ren stands out among legal recruiters in his attention to detail, deep understanding of internal firm issues, and ability to calmly and attentively deal with the many questions that arise throughout the recruiting process. My recruiting process went on for many months and had a bunch of twists and turns. Ren was super nimble and did in-depth research to determine how to move forward at every stage. He was also extremely willing to explain the role of a recruiter and the benefits of working with a recruiter rather than doing it alone - it can often seem like a black box and he made it very understandable. In a sea of recruiters and blind emails, Ren stands out as an extraordinary advisor and guide through what can be a stressful and uncertain time. I wholeheartedly recommend Ren and would certainly work with him again.

Jack has been an absolutely phenomenal recruiter - he's constantly on top of things, was a stupendous consiglieri and has helped me land an awesome gig. I cannot stress enough how much of a gem he is. Highly recommend.

Sidley Austin LLP • New York CityWhy talk to Kate Reder Sheikh?
Benjamin Farkas joined Sidley Austin LLP's San Francisco office in the Litigation group.
Kate is an excellent recruiter--empathetic, knowledgeable, and efficient. At every step of the process, she was encouraging and helpful without ever pushing me in one direction or another. Beyond all of the concrete ways any good recruiter can assist in a job search, she made every part of what could have been a stressful process essentially stress-free, and for that alone I am grateful to have worked with her.
