(testimonial from Marc's JD Refugee® coaching programs)
So I signed myself up and threw myself completely into the process. I didn't want to just quit my job and force myself to move on - having a wife and children doesn't allow that level of spontaneity. On a complete impulse, I decided to no longer put things off anymore. So, I just kept persevering at my job for years - not at all satisfied - but getting by and just enduring so I could be happy in my personal life. I had been thinking for way too long about moving on from my job but life kept getting in the way.
I actually did the serious work to look in the mirror and examine what would make the best fit for me. One of the things I liked most about Marc's program was that it forced me to answer questions and be thoughtful about my career search.

This is the program I should have taken even before law school so I could have gone into my professional life with more mindfulness of what path makes most sense to me. I would definitely recommend Marc's program to anyone even considering getting out of law and also to those who are dissatisfied with their current legal job but who may want to stay in the law. I cannot imagine making a legal career move without Karen, and I hope I never have to. Karen helped me land the exact position in the exact practice area in the exact location I wanted. Here’s what you can expect once you’ve got Karen on your team: expert insider advice on the legal market – including not only the best options for you now, but the best options to position you for your next chapter invaluable assistance with your resume and application materials a cheerleader who will talk you up to all the right folks a mentor who will prep you for interviews, debrief them afterwards, and provide solid advice all along the way a national network of recruiters who will pitch in with advice on specific markets as needed and – most importantly – a friend you can trust to help guide you during one of the most important decisions of your career. It will be the best thing you’ve done for yourself and your career in a long time. If you’re thinking about calling Karen, just stop reading this and go call Karen. You will not find a better recruiter/therapist/friend than Karen Vladeck. She is responsive, kind, and wildly effective at her job. Before starting this process, I didn’t know all of the benefits of working with a good recruiter like Karen, but her deep insider knowledge and powerful advocacy set me up for success. Within weeks, I received and accepted an offer for my dream job as a corporate associate in Austin. Karen didn’t blink she listened and immediately got to work tailoring a list of firms that fit my needs and preparing me for interviews. Not only did I tell her that I wanted to lateral to a different city as a very junior associate, but I also wanted to transition to a new practice group. However, I knew if anyone could help me, it was Karen Vladeck. So, when I heard she was joining Whistler Partners, it felt like fate.īefore reaching out to her, I had already spent several months (unsuccessfully) submitting applications through other recruiters and on my own and was starting to lose hope. I followed her on Twitter and listened to her charming and insightful podcast regularly.
Long before I met Karen, I was a huge fan.
