- Junior attorney
a great use of time
“This was amazing and I really appreciated you sharing your insights. I needed an independent, neutral person to help me think through these issues. You clicked on some things that I clearly need to spend more time thinking on. This was a great use of time.”
- Chief IP Counsel positioning for general counsel roles
I tripled my salary!
“I am happy to report I made the lateral move from a seven-lawyer firm to a BigLaw firm with over 600 lawyers. I also tripled my salary! In the process of securing my new role, I also had two other interviews at Am Law 200 firms. I’m sure the résumé played a role because I went from no interviews to three almost immediately after meeting with Shauna. Tell Shauna I said thanks and I’ll refer her to anyone who asks!”

I love the job
“Hi Shauna, I wanted to let you know that I started at [hotel and resort company] at the end of [month] and I love the job. Working with you on my résumé was extremely helpful, and I’ve recommended you to several of my friends, and even to my husband. Thank you.”

Now I feel great.
“This is an outstanding service you’re providing people. I really feel like I had hit a wall in my job search. A family friend who is a Silicon Valley GC said my résumé didn’t show me as a lawyer; it looked like an intern’s résumé. Now I feel great. I really like how it’s reorganized and focused.”

I’m excited
“This résumé and this experience are helping to propel me forward. I’ve had to get over some of my hangups that lawyers are just supposed to put their heads down and work. I’m changing how I think about myself so that I’m now thinking and talking about my value and the impact that I’ve had. The résumé was excellent and I’m excited.”

“Hi Julie, Thank you so much for talking with us today. You’re an awesome teacher and consultant! My daughter felt so much better after consulting with you.

She was so excited and said 'I didn’t realize there were so many ways I could use law and how important law was.’”

a very actionable framework
“This is a great framework. It’s a very actionable framework. It’s technically sound and makes all the sense of the world. I appreciate having a process that’s not overwhelming and will help me start to narrow down my options so that I can start to make a decision instead of just floundering around. This is very helpful.”
