    Come join our esteemed panel of law firm recruitment professionals for a behind-the-scenes look at the law student recruitment process!

    Many law students have historically secured their first post-graduate job via On-Campus Interviews ("OCI").  However, in recent years the legal recruiting landscape has shifted, and increased law student recruitment is occurring earlier before the OCI process.  AALAM has partnered with legal recruiters from top law firms to bring you insights on the ever-shifting OCI and pre-OCI recruiting landscape.  Our panel includes:

    • Jillian Cuff - Cooley
    • Paige Brito - DLA Piper
    • Jessica Bridges - Goodwin
    • Daniel Vatanaviggun - Troutman Pepper Locke

She opened Moonshine 152 as her first solo chef-owned venture.
