    Why talk to Ed Hossain?

    Annie Blanc joined Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP's New York City office in the Labor & Employment group.

    Ed is a genuinely standout legal recruiter, who secured me my preferred position in my BigLaw lateral move efficiently and insightfully. He was knowledgeable about firm cultures and market dynamics both generally and within my specific practice area, and was direct and honest with me throughout the entire process. Most importantly, he put in the effort to get to know me on a personal level in order to tailor his advice to achieve the best possible results not for his own gain, but for mine. I still consider Ed to be a trusted advisor, and recommend him highly and without hesitation.

    Why talk to Rhea Bagaria, Esq.?

    Adriana Campos-Korn joined Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP's District of Columbia office in the Customs group.

    Rhea truly goes above and beyond as a recruiter. From the first moment we spoke she was so attentive to ensuring that she wasn’t just placing me at a job with an opening where I would do well, but that the job also gave me everything I was looking for. She was involved in every step of the interviewing and hiring process, from helping with preparation for all of my interviews, which included a ton of information and some of the most thoughtful interview questions I’ve ever seen, to debriefing after each interview, to keeping me updated on where we were in the process, and finally helping me with completing the hiring process. She truly tailored the experience to me and made the process so seamless and enjoyable. Rhea is an absolute joy to work with!
