    Why talk to Priya Gulati?

    Adam Grajewski joined Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati's San Diego office in the Corporate group.

    Priya gets it done. Regardless of how strong you are as a candidate, Priya adds value to your search in ways you may not appreciate until you're in the process. She provides a personalized strategy, impeccable organization skills and responsiveness, a sterling reputation among law firm contacts, invaluable insights, dedicated interview prep and so much more. On top of that, she does her job with grace and integrity. When I had an offer in hand and was considering all options, Priya did NOT pressure me to accept the offer, and even suggested I might want to stay put if I felt a certain way. This was against her immediate self interest and speaks volumes about the kind of person and professional she is. Finally, Priya is so down to Earth and a true joy to work with. I can't recommend her enough.

    Why talk to Summer Eberhard?

    Anjali Krishnan joined Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati's San Francisco office in the Tax group.

    Summer helped me navigate the west coast legal market as a foreign attorney which was a challenge with my practice. She gave great insights on the market to steer me in the right direction and even worked with me in putting my materials together. Most importantly, she was extremely responsive and managed my expectations along the journey. I am thankful to her for helping me transition to the US market.

    Why talk to Kate Reder Sheikh?

    Saad Rizwan joined Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati's San Francisco office in the Litigation group.

    Kate is not only a great recruiter but also a wonderful career counselor! As an attorney who has practiced in New York for a number of years, I initially felt overwhelmed at the prospect of moving to the Bay Area and securing an opportunity there. Kate, however, eased my concerns by thoughtfully walking me through the firms I should be targeting in light of my professional interests and career goals. Her deep knowledge of the Bay Area legal market quickly became apparent to me. With Kate's expertise and guidance, I secured a position with a law firm in the Bay Area that has a dynamic practice in my area of interest and is a great fit in terms of culture. I was truly fortunate to have Kate on my side during the process!
