BCG Attorney Search Reviews

Becca was super responsive, very optimistic, supportive, and encouraging. She was very good about giving clear, constructive and specific advice. I found her to be very candid and honest which is very important because you want to be able to trust your recruiter and feel like they are looking out for your interests. 80% of the process was pretty hands off for me. I knew the applications were going out and I felt like I was job searching without doing all of the heavy lifting until it came time for the interview. Even there, communicating with the firm and their HR department - a lot of that Becca handled so I could just focus on preparing for the interview and the substantive aspect of it and giving my best in the interview.I had a great experience and I really enjoyed working with Becca and if I need a job again, she will be the first person I call!Q. Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's you may have used?A. The best so far! BCG Attorney Search

I don't have experience working with any other search firms, but my legal placement professional was just really available to talk, she was helpful and it was a positive experience. I felt comfortable talking to her about any concerns I had and she was very responsive whenever I had questions. I basically didn't even have to do anything in my search.

Basically, I didn't have to do anything until I got the job offer. I never had to check in, she would check in with me and she always worked around my schedule if I was really busy. It made it possible for me to look for and get a new job while working full time and being busy with my other job. My legal placement professional did a really good job at editing my materials that I sent in and giving me ideas on them, which usually others just edited grammar and such on them.Q.Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's?A.You check in more often, which is really nice. She also checked in with the firm's more often, she kept checking in with the hiring partners to give me updates and I hadn't seen that before. Usually recruiters told me that they had to wait 14 days and she didn't.

Brian assisted in placing me at McGuireWoods, and I have now finished my second month here. So far, so good. Brian really went above and beyond in first, evaluating what would be a good fit for my career trajectory, and second, making sure we promptly followed up on opportunities to maximize the probability of being considered. When we initially met Brian really took the time to understand my work background, career path, and personality so that he knew exactly how to market me to firms, but also what would be a good fit. I was even incredibly hesitant at the beginning because, although I was very confident in my work experience, I didn't know if all of the other numerous details like my transcript and law school could create the right result. Basically, meeting with Brian to discuss these possibilities took me in an unexpected but ultimately extremely rewarding direction. After I was offered an interview, Brian was extremely quick to make sure that I would be prepared. When Brian and I met for interview preparation, he gave me a rundown of all the normal things to expect, but also imparted a lot of his experience and wisdom from his years practicing as well as in recruiting. This was invaluable because, whether or not I followed each instruction to a tee, it set the tone and gave me the momentum to go in and interview feeling completely prepared. I believe that level of preparation really provided a confidence that made the difference. As well, even when I had doubts or inconsequential concerns, Brian took every effort to address those or put me at ease. In my case, there was a long waiting process to hear back. Brian, as I now know, followed up regularly to make sure that this opportunity wouldn't go away. In the end, I believe they said and did exactly what they needed to retain the attention of this firm. I can't say enough about how glad I am that Brian reached out when they did, for offering me this opportunity, and for helping me turn it into a huge jump in my career.

My favorite thing about working with BCG was locating positions that I wasn't aware of. The first three words that come to mind when I think of BCG are responsive, helpful, and good to work with. I would rank BCG right at the top compared to other recruiting companies. I was very pleased to work with BCG Attorney Search, and would recommend them. I found a really good position.

With working with my legal placement professional, she always kept me updated which was really nice because you are constantly wanting to know who is interested in you and who isn't, and she was incredibly responsive to my questions and was always sure to make sure I knew if there were any updates and if they wanted an interview, or if they weren't interested, that kind of thing. You guys were also able to find a lot of firms that I would have never been able to find on my own, and I think that working with you guys, it was easier to get in touch with the firms and be taken seriously rather than applying independently. BCG is the best legal recruiting service that I have used.

The outcome was incredible. I am exactly in the position that I always wanted to be in and dreamed of. This wouldn't have happened without [BCG] and Sarah taking a keen interest and doing an awesome job. She was really easy to talk to, really encouraging and helpful in getting me as prepared as I could be by giving me tips and advice going into interviews. She reached out to the right firms and contact and everything worked out perfectly.

It put me in contact with the right firm ultimately and it wasn't a firm that had anything posted. I ended up at Barnes Richardson and Colburn and they didn't have an open position but Sarah somehow knew that they had potentially expressed some kind of interest in finding somebody with my type of background. It made it easier because it opened up a door that I didn't know existed and ultimately it was the right door to go through.

I just can't say enough good things about her. Such a friendly and professional person who had a huge impact on my life and made my life totally different because she took the time to reach out to me and work with me and work on my behalf. I just want to express my appreciation, really.

Q. Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's?

A. Definitely the best!

I worked with my legal placement professional. She was very proactive about getting my resume and cover letter out to different people and always keeping me updated and sending me articles to go through. I liked that she was very proactive about getting my name out there. You guys did all the work in terms of drafting cover letters which was very helpful [since] I didn't have to do that myself. Identifying good employers to send my resumes to was really helpful because it took out a lot of the leg work for me. [When I think of BCG Attorney Search] proactive, dedicated, helpful, and knowledgeable [come to mind]...I would put you guys as number one. I would say that it's really helpful to work with you guys because you're proactive. I know some recruiters just sit back and wait and [are] not always on the lookout for new opportunities. [BCG was] really helpful...again, you do a lot of the leg work, drafting cover letters. [I would recommend that] anybody that is looking to find a new position [should] work with you guys. You are very helpful and you have a lot of good clients in terms of placements.

One of the best things about working with BCG is the access to law firms that BCG has. BCG seems to be working with a lot of the top tier law firms in the country. Very exciting for me that I got Associate. The other thing I really liked about working with BCG was working with my legal placement professional. She has been the person I have been in contact with, in terms of just working with BCG. She has been really great. There are a few things about working with BCG that made my job search easier. Just knowing which firms are looking. A lot of firms are not going to post things on job boards. They may just reach out to a search firm like BCG for help, so that was one of the things that made it easier for sure. Another thing that helped was getting advice, interview advice, and being able to walk through with my legal placement professional, just what the firms like to hear, what they don't like to hear, interview questions, thank you emails, things like that. BCG is one of the best legal recruiting firms.
