About Karin

My career has included two AmLaw 100 law firms. I was the director of hiring and have been hiring law students and lawyers for years. I like to share what I have learned. I can happily provide job seekers with helpful tools to utilize during the job search process. I could also help with decisions about what law school to attend.
