Zsaleh Harivandi

Zsaleh Harivandi

Swan Legal Search

Nikta Daijavad joined Gunderson Dettmer Stough Villeneuve Franklin & Hachigian LLP in San Diego

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about my experience working with Zsaleh. I reached out to Zsaleh as an associate at a boutique firm in New York, looking to lateral to a BigLaw firm in California. I knew my search would be challenging, and I was feeling pretty nervous going into it - but Zsaleh made me feel optimistic from the moment we met. She was so exceptionally organized and had such a vast network of connections throughout California that I felt like I was in excellent hands throughout the entire process. She was also so communicative, giving me regular updates on all of my outstanding applications, and she was a huge help when I was preparing for interviews. Zsaleh played such a crucial role in me landing my dream role, and I can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you for everything, Zsaleh!

Ren was great to work with. I was under no pressure to leave my prior firm and relatively new to the process, and Ren tailored his approach to my situation and worked with me to find the best opportunities. From our first conversation, he was proactive, invested and diligent in keeping things moving across the board. From market knowledge to interview advice, his insights and experience proved very helpful and contributed to a smooth and straightforward transition. I’m very grateful to Ren for his role in the process.

McClure Harrison, Inc.

Monika Petkova joined Fenwick & West in San Francisco

I very much enjoyed working with Jessica. Jessica knows the market well and does an excellent job of guiding you through the process, from interview prep, to scheduling, to frequent check-ins. However, I think what sets Jessica apart the most is her strategic thinking: she knows how to expertly navigate a challenging interview process or tricky hiring timeline, a rare skill that can make an invaluable difference in achieving the outcome you're hoping for. I highly recommend working with Jessica if you're looking to make a lateral move.

Wilson X. Hall joined Davis Wright Tremaine LLP in San Francisco

I had a pleasant experience working with Summer. I worked with Summer over the span of a couple months and Summer reached out to me immediately when a position that fit my desires and experience opened up. Summer was very responsive and I believe her industry connections coupled with her law firm relationships lead to a favorable outcome for my transition. Based on our conversations, Summer told me that I would be in great hands at my current firm and she was right. I trust Summer’s advocacy and word and would work with Summer again in the future.
