We are seeing a noticeable shift in the legal recruitment market.
Good lawyers aren’t necessarily waiting for jobs to appear.
And when they do decide to explore the market, they’re often speaking to several firms at once.
The firms winning these candidates aren’t always the firms offering the highest salary.
They’re the firms that move quickly, communicate well and give candidates a compelling reason to make the move.
So perhaps the question isn’t “Why can’t we find good lawyers?”
It’s “Are we making it easy enough for good lawyers to choose us?”
I’d be interested to hear from Partners and hiring managers — what is currently slowing your recruitment process down?
