The newest member of our team, Megan L. Faust, began recruiting for our agency in late 2010.
Megan's introduction to recruiting began in 1999 when, as a candidate of our agency, she was placed by Dianne McClelland at a boutique firm in Pittsburgh, where she remained for eleven years.
In her many years of practicing law, Megan obtained a good command of the legal market and built strong relationships, both of which have been keys to her success in the field of legal recruiting.
She is detail oriented, attentive, trustworthy and proactive, all of which make her attractive to both candidates and clients.
