“Hi Shauna, I hope all is well with you. I want to let you know that I recently accepted a position as the new Director of Government Affairs with the [international nonprofit]… Thank you for assisting me throughout my post-law school job search. I know that without your help in developing a job search strategy and reformatting my résumé to best appeal to employers that I would not have gotten this opportunity. I will keep in touch.”

- Junior lawyer shifting to executive-track

“One of the most helpful parts of our conversation is forcing me to remember all the work I’ve done. It was an extremely helpful exercise and a great reminder that you’ve got to know what’s on your résumé and be able to speak to it. Thank you so much!​”

- GC-track financial services attorney

“This is all makes sense. I’m like ‘Wow! I would hire me.’ This is why I engaged you.”

- Senior generalist in public companies positioning for first GC roles

“​This is great feedback. This has been very enlightening. I probably should have done this years ago.”

- Senior in-house counsel considering path to GC

“This is fantastic. This is wonderful. I’m so glad we talked, even if just for 30 minutes!”

- Former career DOJ prosecutor preparing for Fortune 100 job interview

“I don’t know how you do this! This is exhausting :) And I don’t think I would have ever been able to pull this résumé together myself.”

- Securities lawyer positioning for GC roles

“You sound so enthusiastic and chipper so early in the morning!”

- Senior in-house counsel

“In the last 10 minutes, I’ve realized that I really needed something to click with me about why I’m not interviewing well. And this is it. I’ve had all the answers in my head, but my insecurities cloud my ability to give the clear, concise, confident answers. Honestly, I have struggled with this for months. I’ve been so hung up on trying to justify and apologize for my background instead of really understanding that it has value. I finally got it! I'm so glad we did this.”

- Law firm litigation partner shifting to very different in-house roles

“You’ve done fantastic job at providing value.”

- Former Fortune 10 and BigLaw lawyer

“I’ve really been focusing my résumé on the wrong things and I know that’s why I haven’t gotten the responses that I want. I feel like the work we’re doing is putting the right tone in. Many thanks and I look forward to talking again!”

- Former U.S. head of D&I / corporate social responsibility for Fortune 500

“It’s just non-stop; it’s crazy. I sent the résumé to the chairmen of three AmLaw 100 firms, and all three responded within 24 hours, so I have three interviews next week with both the chairs and key lawyers in the office. I’m very pleased. The combination of documents is getting the doors opened. And I had a lot of people who supported me—like my friends who are partners at other firms—but once they saw my new résumé, they saw me in a different way, not just as their friend anymore. I’m taken much more seriously, and given so much more respect because they’re really seeing the impact I’ve had and the level of work I’ve done. It has changed the conversation. I consider you part of my team now, and I’m so grateful.”

- Law firm partner

“I have a lot of homework, but thank you so much! “

- AGC preparing for GC-track

“This has been very helpful. I really needed to talk to a dispassionate third-party to start to weigh these options and understand the consequences of the potential decisions.”

- BigLaw associate considering partnership v in-house

“My résumé finally tells a story.”

- Former senior corporate counsel at Fortune 5 multinational

“This has been so helpful. 90% of what you’ve said are things I didn’t know, things I didn’t even think about. But it all makes so much sense.”

- Lead defense counsel at Fortune 100 financial services giant

"Speaking with you was life-changing.”

- Silicon Valley lawyer

“​You’ve really helped me realize all the work I’ve done over the years. My résumé has been a source of stress for me for a long time. I’ve been stressed about even how to get started. Just going through process has been helpful and been building my confidence—regardless of whether I stay with my current company or not.”

- AGC exploring outside options

“I really feel positive. ​Not only am I more motivated, but our sessions really helped me as a mentor in [national nonprofit] helping to motivate and educate women lawyers on branding, presentation, and job search. I’d love to have you come to one of our conferences.”
