One thing that really stood out to me was Andrew sending me an opportunity even though it didn’t allow recruiter submissions. That told me he genuinely cared more about helping me find the right opportunity than just getting credit for a placement and I really respected that. Highly recommend!
Austin worked diligently and closely with me in securing my very exciting new role. Throughout our relationship, Austin thoughtfully engaged in discussions regarding all aspects of the interview and acceptance process while sharing valuable insight and advice. He and his hard work are very much appreciated.

Jessica was a stand out legal recruiter from the very beginning. She was always attentive and responsive to questions and new openings as they became available, and I never felt as if I was just another number in the system. She was very dedicated to finding the perfect role for me, understanding my background and interests thoroughly in recommending roles that were ideal fits. Once an interview request came in, her help preparing for interviewing was unmatched and extremely helpful. I highly recommend working with Jessica as she is clearly exceptional.

Priya really went above and beyond as a recruiter. In one of the toughest real estate lateral markets in recent history, Priya guided me through the extremely choppy waters to landing at a top firm in my city of choice. Priya is organized, thorough, responsive and has deep relationships with top firms’ recruiting departments. She keeps a constantly updated list of firms which you have applied to and garners feedback from interviews to help you improve, constantly tweaking your resume for each position you apply to. She also takes your calls at all hours, even late at night before interviews to help you prepare. 5/5 I highly recommend.

I appreciated his guidance and support throughout my lateral experience, resulting in a successful and fulfilling placement. Highly recommend his services and choosing Mosaic! Thank you for making the journey smoother and easier!

Jack is excellent at what he does. My experience with Jack was better than I could’ve hoped for. He secured interviews for me quickly, was incredibly responsive, and did his best to fulfill my needs as I searched for my next firm. My results were fantastic, resulting in 3 offers from interviews secured by Jack. I highly recommend his services!
Vijay is thoughtful, methodical, and has incredible attention to detail. It was clear from the onset that Vijay's style is different. Vijay was focused from the beginning in ensuring I found the perfect fit for my lateral move by spending time getting to know my needs and understanding what was important to me. And if that were not enough, Vijay worked around my schedule -- often at the expense of his own -- to check in and ensure I had everything I needed through the process. No joke, the poor guy was even sending check in emails while trying to navigate an engagement to his now-fiancee! Vijay was very strategic in setting a plan for myself and went above and beyond to make sure that I was prepared for each interview, discussed feedback after each interview, next steps, and my feelings about the practice groups. Vijay was also great at putting things into perspective by discussing and differentiating how each firm impacted my short-term and long-term goals. Vijay helped negotiate a generous sign-on bonus and remained committed even after I had accepted an offer. Vijay assisted me in transitioning from my previous firm to my new firm including what to expect in the exit process. Put simply, I would highly recommend Vijay to anyone considering a lateral move, irrespective of practice group or location.
