Testimonials:

"I had a very pleasant experience working with Cypress Recruiting. Cypress was resourceful and reliable from the first phone call and throughout the entire process. They were always there when I needed something, and provided valuable guidance in this increasingly competitive market. I would highly recommend Cypress Recruiting to someone considering a position with leading law firms in Asia."

-Haitao Sun (Corporate Associate, Clifford Chance, Hong Kong)

"Working with Cypress Recruiting ensured that I was able to transition my practice from the UK to Japan in a very smooth and efficient manner. From start to finish, I was provided with updates on the Japanese legal market, and my recruiter was always available to discuss my progress and advise on steps going forwards. I would strongly recommend their services to any professional interested in positions with the top law firms in Tokyo. "

-Taiki Ki (Corporate Associate, Baker & McKenzie, Tokyo)

"Cypress Recruiting is a superb recruiting team. Frankly, they are our #1 recruiter - and we will look at candidates Cypress sources more positively than others because, frankly, they have some ability to get the good ones."

-Ken Siegel, Managing Partner, Morrison & Foerster LLP, Tokyo

"Not only did Dawn Robertson find me my dream job, but she was absolutely indispensible to me in making my transition to that job. When talking to a recruiter, remember that experience counts; the truly great ones ask questions you didn't even know you had. The trip to Japan was a long one from my Wall Street firm, but it was made easy thanks to Dawn and the team at Cypress. I can not thank them enough. Waza waza arigatou gozaimasu!"

-Jay Southgate, Corporate Associate, Milbank Tweed, Tokyo

"I had been considering a move back to China for some time after working in the US for a few years. Cypress not only helped me fulfill my wish but assisted me in every step of the way in this major transition. Prior to initiating the job search, a Cypress recruiter briefed me on the latest trends in the Chinese legal industry and addressed my personal concerns regarding the timing of my move. During the search process, I was impressed with their extensive network, responsiveness and honesty - including a diligent approach to maintaining confidentiality and addressing other concerns. The recruiter assisted me in creating an impeccable resume and cover letter which were modified on the basis of different job requirements. I would definitely recommend Cypress to any person who seeks a diligent, professional and a reputable recruiting firm."
