BCG Attorney Search Reviews

I have to say, I have always been leery of recruiters and tried avoiding them at all costs. You've been the only one who actually did what I imagined a recruiter should do -- and, landing the position was a bonus. I'll definitely be referring you to friends in the future.

I appreciated the streamlined process when my legal placement professional sent me a list of firms fitting my preferences and their open positions, and allowed me to look through them and let her know which I was interested in. My legal placement professional was responsive communicating between the firm and me, gave extra effort finding answers to my questions, and helpful submitting my paperwork. I liked that she's communication style was both professional and personable. The process was quick and didn't take too much time. It seemed like the search covered a lot of firms I was interested in.Q. Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's you may have used?A. I have otherwise only interacted with recruiters who contacted me in relation to a specific position at one firm. I preferred BCG's approach of showing me a selection of openings to choose from - it was more efficient and allowed me to give input.

My favorite thing about working with My legal placement professional was her quick response time. She was great!

She was very knowledgeable about the market and had a large scope of information on both mid-sized and AmLaw firms. She was great at negotiating the offers that came in with the firm, ultimately to the offer that I accepted. She was able to give me advice on time frames in which to answer firms that did move forward with offers and help navigate that process. She provided excellent service. Sarah is awesome, great, thoughtful, and diligent. A pleasure to work with.

The cover letter, that the people I was working with drafted, I thought it was very thoughtful, and I appreciate the level of detail. Another thing I certainly appreciated during my experience working with BCG, is the amount of applications that the recruiter had been sending out on a daily basis. The volume of work that was done to help me secure position, definitely appreciated. It was easier because it took all of the leg work out of the equation for me, and to not have to research listings. To actually go through the process of submitting a formal application can be obviously very time consuming. Also had someone who could help me negotiate compensation packages, be the middleman, and take the awkwardness involved out of the situation in a very seamless, almost effortless experience for me. On a scale of zero to 10, I'd probably put it at 8.5, because prior to working with BCG, I did speak with several other recruiting agencies, and in the beginning, they would be very active and follow up timely, then very quickly the relationship would disintegrate and then I would never hear from them, so I guess compared to that, I would give it at at least an 8.5.

Thanks so much for all your help. If I decide to come back east I will definitely reach out to you.

I really appreciate your kind words. You are without a doubt the best recruiter I have worked with. You will be my recommendation to anyone who asks.

Hi Harrison - I've read your blog posts for a number of years and have never found anyone else's writing so truthful about working at a US law firm - I love reading your posts.

[My favorite thing about working with BCG & my legal placement professional were] the list of opportunities that I was provided with your connections and know how in the industry. There were extra opportunities that I was missing in my personal search. Opportunities were delivered to me weekly. I also had someone who could direct me and review my essays, cover letter, resume and things like that she was particularly helpful with. These were particularly strange times to be looking for a position with COVID and she helped navigate the search very well and it all worked out.

I cannot overstate how pleased I am with the work that my recruiter provided and the results she helped me obtain. Unlike previous experience I've had with other recruiters, she was able to focus my job search to only those firms where there was a good fit between what they were looking for and what I was looking for. She also provided invaluable advice as to how to position myself and my background for maximum effectiveness, whether by resume or in the interview itself. Finally, the "moral support" that my recruiter was happy to provide was a bonus very much appreciated. In short, I landed the job I wanted, and I felt better throughout the whole process as a result of working with her, too. I would recommend her to anybody thinking about a new job.
