Testimonials
"Having trained at a local HK firm, I thought my options were limited on moving to an international firm as a corporate associate. Sonia provided me several options, and was very honest about the hours, compensation and what I would be getting into. I landed at a US firm where I can develop my career long term." - Corporate Associate
"Sonia was hands down the best recruiter I spoke to when I decided to make a move. She presented me with top tier US firm options, resulting in TWO offers, and with me landing at one of the most prestigious corporate teams in Hong Kong." - Corporate Associate
"Sonia thinks outside the box, each candidate she presents absolutely makes sense for OUR practice, and our firm, she's placed 3 associates with us now, and we hope to keep them coming." - US Firm Partner | Hong Kong
