March 03, 2014 • 12:15 PM • Law School 3043

Don't miss this chance to get a candid inside look at firms' assessment of 2L summer associates, and the permanent offer process, from Daniel Vatanaviggun, Campus Relations Attorney at Shearman & Sterling LLP. Dan will share what sets summer associates apart in attorneys¿ minds; the most effective means to convey your particular "value add" as part of a law firm's summer program; and the choices that most often undermine the success of otherwise strong 2L candidates. Having served as Shearman's Campus Relations Attorney for the past ten years, Dan acts as a strategic adjunct to the firm's Recruiting department. Before assuming his current role, Dan worked in the recruiting divisions of both Fenwick & West and O'Melveny & Myers. Lunch will be served. Sponsored by the Career & Professional Development Center.
