Atticus Recruiting Testimonials

"During the almost 20 year period I have directed my firm’s hiring efforts, I have worked with dozens of legal recruiters. Michelle Kaplan McAndrew, without question, is among the very best in her field. She is responsive, extremely knowledgeable about the marketplace and wholly committed to the best interests of her clients."

"It would be difficult for me to overstate how much I appreciate Michelle and all of the work that she has done on my behalf. As someone who has been in the professional world for a number of years and who has, like all lawyers, fielded cold calls from legal recruiters on a regular basis, I was admittedly cynical about how much extra value a recruiter could actually bring to my job search. After my first meeting with Michelle, I was convinced that she was more competent, knowledgeable, and compassionate than any other recruiter that I’d ever met. Perhaps most invaluably, Michelle took the time to get to know me, to understand my story, and to recognize the attributes that I sought in a workplace. She worked with me, in person, to help refine my professional narrative, through which I was better able to communicate my value to potential employers. She also suggested tweaks to my resume things that I probably would have never thought of that enhanced it in subtle, but important, ways. Michelle worked with me to identify the firms that best fit my criteria and then utilized her extensive professional network to see to it that, whether the firm was openly hiring or not, my name made it to the desk of a decisionmaker. Even after I was placed at a leading global firm, Michelle continued to take the time to periodically reach out to me to check in to see that I was still pleased with the job, or simply to chat and catch up. To this day, I cannot thank her enough or express how grateful I am to have had the chance to work with her."
