First of all, jealous. I went from Century City to DTLA and miss working in Century City so much. Which building are you in?

Palms is a great area to live in, and you can mostly take side streets and residential streets to get to work. On good days, it took me less than 10 minutes.

I actually stayed put. I also lived in this neighborhood during law school, and the commute to school was similar, so it’s not too much of a hassle. Just not “10 minutes of side streets” mellow.

Stuff in DTLA is inconvenient. I miss the food options in CC.

And yeah, CC is basically an office park full of law firms and entertainment companies.

Hi there - not sure if there are many/ or any/ members here but thought I'd give it a try! For those working in executive search firms: do you regularly pull metrics on your searches and if so, is this an automated function? We find when we want to get detailed on our search metrics, we really have to get to the data manually. Curious if others have this experience and if you were able to find a solution. Any comments/thoughts appreciated. Thanks!
