The Asian-American Lawyers Association of Massachusetts
attracted nearly 30 people to an event on March 24 called "What Not
to Wear - How to Make a Good Impression in Today's Legal
Market."
A panel of speakers gave advice what not to wear and what not to
do in professional situations. Attendees networked and were fitted
by experts at 9tailors LLC studios, a Boston-based
"design-it-yourself" custom clothing company where the event was
held.
Panelists included Mandi Araujo LeBeau, a business etiquette
consultant for Pardon Me Inc. and director of Career Services at
New England Law | Boston; Samantha Shih, founder, 9tailors LLC;
Brion Bickerton, a legal recruiter with Major Lindsey & Africa
| Boston; and Katie Thatcher, career advisor at Northeastern
University School of Law and formerly director of recruiting at
Hinckley, Allen & Snyder LLP and legal recruitment manager at
Ropes & Gray LLP.
AALAM founders Marian Tse of Goodwin Procter LLP and Diane
Young-Spitzer of the Massachusetts Securities Division also
attended.
