Dear Class of 2024 Student,
As the Senior Manager of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP, I would like to introduce myself and make the members of your affinity group aware of the tremendous career opportunities that are available at our Firm. Cadwalader has a sincere commitment to creating a diverse and inclusive work environment. The mission of the Cadwalader Center for Diversity & Inclusion is to enhance gender, racial/ethnic, and LGBTQ diversity and inclusion within the Firm to create an unrivalled environment that attracts, retains and promotes the best and brightest talent available to serve the Firm’s clients. I, along with the Firm’s leadership, am keenly aware of the importance and necessity of a work environment that provides every individual with an equal opportunity to succeed and to perform at his or her highest level.
Attorneys from Cadwalader, including representatives from the Firm’s Affinity Networks, are very interested in speaking with students who seek a supportive, yet challenging and fast-paced work environment, while learning from some of the country’s best and brightest attorneys. I recognize that you have many choices, but if you have the will and desire to be the best lawyer you can be, we want you to be a part of our summer class next year! To learn more about our summer program, visit www.cadwalader.com/makehistory.
I also encourage you to consider applying for our Catherine Noyes Lee 2L Diversity & Inclusion Scholarship! We are accepting applications now until July 5, 2022. To learn more about the scholarship and how you can apply, please visit https://diversityscholarship.cadwalader.com/.
