Lateral Link Placement: Milbank Tweed, Hong Kong
Lateral Link Search Consultant: Justin Flowers
Working with Lateral Link was a great experience from my initial registration on day one to the day I started my new position at Milbank in Hong Kong. I signed up with Lateral Link in an abysmal global hiring market – unsure what to expect regarding my prospects. Justin Flowers, Lateral Link’s Director for International Placements, was direct, straightforward, and a valuable resource from the beginning regarding every aspect of the international search process. He was able to get me multiple interviews and ultimately placed me in an outstanding Asia practice.
