BCG Attorney Search Reviews

I enjoyed the responsiveness. I was licensed in a different state and BCG helped me get a job in a different jurisdiction. I would say that whether [it was] a phone call or an email BCG was very quick to respond. It made it easier because you could really bounce ideas off the BCG individual, sort of as an intermediary. No question was really out of line or too dumb or could be misconstrued any which way. It was nice to have that buffer. [I would describe BCG as] responsive, diligent, and loyal. I have worked with others, [and BCG is] among the best. I worked with two other ones before and so I had come into working with BCG jaded about recruiting services. The others ones were not giving me the type of opportunity that I had merited and BCG was able to obtain many interviews for me. I would describe BCG as a place where you should get with them early on and stick with them. The hiring process is unknown [territory] but BCG will be there to help you navigate the uncharted waters of [your] job search.

[My favorite thing about working with BCG Attorney Search was] that you guys got me a good job. You took care of all of the application process and I was working so you reduced a lot of the time constraints, or helped me manage that. [I would describe BCG as having] nice people, [being] hardworking, [and getting] good results. I have not worked with any [other recruiting firms] but I have friends who have and you're the best. I know a couple other friends who will be going to you guys because of my experience. You guys took care of most the leg work, reached out to about 100 law firms, and did a really great job at trying to shape my message and background into a sellable package.

I had access to a very large volume of opportunities and openings, I appreciated the depth of picturing experience in terms of things like resources to other people who have received offers from other places, and having that type of intel information that was available was helpful. BCG made my job search much easier as I was able to focus on things like preparing for interviews and other areas of researching the firms where I had received an invitation to interview with rather than spending my time researching firms that didn't show interest in the first place. I had more time for things like putting together emails and cover letters , that kind of first step. I have been very happy with BCG. I used BCG when I was placed with my old firm as well and I was very pleased with working with my recruiter and when I decided I was going to make a move, she was my first and only call and didn't even consider speaking with other people because I was so confident in her process and in working with BCG.

I ultimately got a job at the end so that was a good outcome. I like the way the process was where I could vet the firms that were possible options. I had a good conversation at the beginning of the process that helped with my expectations and how the process was going to work so I found that really helpful as well. It was great to not have to write a bunch of different cover letters and not have to scan the internet every day for possible opportunities. Especially right now because I am in a clerkship and looking for the next job is time consuming when I could be focusing on my current job.Q. Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's?A. I used one at the beginning of my search and it didn't go anywhere and I didn't really heard from them on what was happening so I was in the dark and confused. This was a lot better than that one!

I liked the weekly updates that I got, and I liked that my legal placement professional was always very available. She would text me or email me, was always pretty easy to get a hold of, and made herself available even on the weekends. It was easier to have someone else take care of it, and I knew she would always check in. She was willing to do as much or as little as I wanted her to, so that was really good. You are very helpful and I like the way your system is set up. I would definitely recommend you to a friend.

What where some of your favorite things about working with BCG and Becca?

Becca was extremely helpful! She was available by phone whenever I needed her and she gave me some helpful hints on the interview process. Ultimately, she got me exactly the job I was looking for.

How did working with us make you job search easier?

She found the job for me so didn't have to find it. She applied to the position for me and it wasn't even a listed position. I didn't have to go through the astonishingly burdensome process of uploading a resume and having it auto populate wrong, which I had to do on a number of the other websites/firms where I applied. She did everything and I didn't have to do anything at all apart from the law school part and showing up and not being a total a** in the interview.
Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's?

# 1 because none of the other companies got me a jobs, they got me interviews but nothing else, so you get first place for that. I worked with Parker Lynch and one other and I thought they were fine but Becca was much more responsive than the others.

Anything else?

One of the think that I experienced with a couple of recruiters in my time as a lawyer this year and you get someone that is really excited and they say "You've got a great resume, I've got all of these things, hang on a minute and I'll get right back with you on Tuesday and we are going to have interviews for you" and then 2 weeks later I email them because I haven't heard anything and I never got a response. That didn't happen here and it has happened with other places in this particular search. Becca was always there whenever I emailed so that is one thing that really sets your firm apart from the others.

I would say that my legal placement professional was extremely attentive, sometimes I would message or email her on the weekend not expecting her to reply until Monday, but I did it when I had it in my head and she would reply right away which I was always surprised at and told her she didn't have to do. She was extremely attentive and responsive. She was also very understanding and I didn't feel pressured by her. I felt like she was really a pleasure to work with, so friendly and made me feel really comfortable. I think that the facilitation of having another point of contact, someone who has either an established relationship with a firm or just some other point of contact with them helped get answers faster, responses faster, whether they were positive or negative, at least you could move on and focus on other areas so I feel like it facilitated the overall speed of the process and there was definitely opportunities that she found that I don't think I would have found on my own. I would say that she is absolutely outstanding and I really enjoyed working and communicating with her and thought she was extremely professional and understanding and overall a really great resource.

I think my legal placement professional is very proactive and very responsive. Every time I had question, no matter what kind of question, whether about my resume, an opening or about an interview question, she always responded very quickly. In terms of BCG Search, the biggest advantage is that it has a very large database and works with a lot of law firms, so there are a lot of exclusive opportunities that are only posted on BCG's website. What really saved me time was I think the system, how the whole process works, like she would send me a link so that I could view the opening that required my approval and shows each opportunity and how far it goes. The system works very well and makes it very intuitive and easy for a candidate to get a knowledge of what kind of opportunity is available and what are the process in terms of each opportunity. BCG a lot of established information in their systems, like if you are going to have an interview, BCG has a book to tell you about the process, how to ace the interview, and if you have a call back, then BCG will have a book for you on the helpful tips and tricks on how to answer a call back. I think BCG is absolutely the best.
