Michelle Domingue II

Associate Attorney at Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman

“Caroline was the consummate professional from the moment I engaged her as a recruiter. Throughout the search process, she was communicative, proactive, and took time to truly understand my needs, strengths, and fitness for any available roles. I never wondered about Caroline's dedication to helping me land my next opportunity, because she regularly relayed new opportunities and always gauged my interest before submitting any materials to hiring teams. She also took time to explain best practices and strategies for interviewing, answering any questions I had about my preparation.

Perhaps one of the most emblematic moments of Caroline's support for me came late in the search process. I had suffered an unexpected loss of a family member. Without hesitation, Caroline respected and supported my decision to refine my search, and she gave me all the space I needed to navigate my new responsibilities.

Ultimately, I landed an offer from an Am Law 100 firm that boasted many of the qualities I expressed in my non-negotiables list to Caroline during our initial phone call. If you're looking for a persistent, honest, and compassionate recruiter to help you find your next professional opportunity, I highly recommend Caroline.”

“Making a career move is extremely stressful, but working with Caroline was a truly wonderful experience. Caroline is VERY good at her job, but in a way that is thoughtful and intentional. She will do whatever it takes to place you somewhere that fits, but will never make you feel pressured or like you’re asking too much. Caroline was honest and realistic with me when necessary, and understanding and welcoming of my concerns and personal boundaries. I would absolutely work with Caroline again, and will continue to personally recommended her to other attorneys.”

“I had an excellent experience working with Caroline to find my next role. As soon as I started working with Caroline, she was proactive in sending me roles that she thought would be a good fit based on my background and interests. I was nervous about making a career change, but Caroline provided thoughtful advice and guidance along the way. She made herself available to chat on the phone, answer questions, and help me prepare for interviews. After a short time working with Caroline, I landed a role at a top law firm in my practice area. I’m incredibly grateful to Caroline for her support and expert advice, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new position.”
