Pros
Raj Nichani and The RMN Team are focused on crafting a smart and intelligent approach to legal career advancement. I've been part of the team that has won Best Legal Recruiting Firm the last 2 years from The Daily Report. What I appreciate about our approach is that we truly customize and have a hands-on approach to cultivating our legal candidates. Because of our connections and vast network, RMN has the ability to get the insider, granular information on the position, firm or corporate culture, and legal teams where candidates are interviewing. That way, the candidates go into interviews extremely well prepared, and with confidence. That's the RMN advantage! Mentorship from the Managing Director is also very encouraging and rewarding. There is a lot of feedback and discussion back and forth of how to approach recruiting, and setting goals to achieve. Sr. Recruiters are paired to sit with Jr. Recruiters for cold and warm calling, so that both learn from each other and are energized and encouraged by the process. Having practiced as an attorney for 20 years before switching to recruiting, I have learned a tremendous amount about the overview of the legal industry just in the past 2 years. Having learned that knowledge, I am eager to pass it on to young associates and attorneys who are finding themselves, and help them reach the next stage of their legal careers.
Cons
If you can all it a con at all: there's a *lot* of networking events involved. I enjoy them and help planning them. But when you attend parties or receptions back to back to back to back, watch out that your diet plans can be sabotaged--especially over the holidays! Have a plan to stay focused and healthy!
