Lateral

Hey there! Feel free to send me a message! I’d be happy to chat.

Happy to share the contact for the recruiter I worked with via dm. I also lateraled within NY and my friends who worked with her also had great experience and results.

Feel free to DM me. I used multiple recruiters while lateraling at v10 firms and now at in house. I can give you some honest, hopefully helpful insight.

What industry/practice area are you in now?

Finance associate, but I really enjoyed working with my recruiter last year for a lateral between two v30 firms and was able to negotiate decent signing bonus. DM me if you want his deets.

For folks commenting that the used a recruiter who they liked…go to their LinkedIn and leave a positive recommendation. This will mean a lot to them.
