BCG Attorney Search Reviews

You guys have an extensive list of openings and my legal placement professional was really very helpful in guiding me through the process and casting a really wide net and she was very helpful with explaining the process every step of the way. A couple of places rejected me right away, and she explained that and then it was pending in a lot of places and she explained what that really meant and the internal workings of the law firm and how they keep them as pending even if no one has looked at it yet and she had a very large wealth of knowledge about the whole process verses my perspective as a candidate.My legal placement professional did everything, I still was asking if she could help with the health insurance information for the new firm I accepted and I pinged her and asked if she could get it, and right away she turned around and had it. Basically, any time I had a question, I would just email my legal placement professional and it would get solved. You guys are definitely the best. I have worked in the past with other recruiters, but this was such a great experience. I highly recommend BCG. If I was ever looking for another job, I would certainly use you guys again.

The best thing about working with Becca and BCG is that it was so organized. Daily or every other day or so I would get new firms I would go through. Often times the interview times were set up through her and she had it on point. There were several times that Becca did mock interviews with me which was very good. She was always very responsive and very helpful.

[Using BCG] made my job search way easier. Before I would be applying individually to a firm here and there but being able to apply to 10-15 at a time made it made it way easier and things moved quicker. Becca and BCG were amazing!

It made it easy in that I really didn't have to look at postings on my own and I also didn't have to do the cover letter, which was super helpful. The firm that I got placed at, the HR rep, he used to work for BCG so there's already some sort of familiarity and something that was helpful going in and starting the process.

I am very happy to be working with you, my recruiter and BCG.

My recruiter was amazing; they were very responsive, knew the market, understood my skills and were able to figure out a good firm for me to be at. It made it easier to have someone review my resume. My recruiter reviewed my cover letter, which was well drafted and that helped. Also targeting the potential firm helped. The first three words are: experienced, since I know most of your recruiters have been lawyers, so I think they can understand better; being responsive; and well prepared: every time before I was going somewhere my recruiter knew what to do what and say. My recruiter was very well prepared. I would rank you very high among other recruiting companies. I would recommend BCG Attorney Search.

I started working with my recruiter and she was really good. She kind of just jumped in and said, ""Can I help you? Can we talk about this? What can we do? What are you thinking about?"" I had some other offers that were through a different recruiter. Of course she emphasized the Milbank offer, but I believed what she said when she compared them, and I appreciated her advice. She also was open, and she said do you need help on neighborhoods and moving and all that stuff. I feel like she has handled this a lot. She knows what's going to happen. I debated asking for a signing bonus, since I had multiple offers. She then contacted Milbank and their recruiter and said would this be bad? We ended up finding a good way to get me a litter better deal than the original first offer. So I really appreciated her, her knowledge, and knowing how best to approach that and giving me advice on what and what would not be a good ideaa nd then I got an offer, which was amazing.

As far as getting a little bit better offer I think that was something my recruiter was able to help, and I'm not sure I would have been able to do myself. It was nice to kind of have the in-between, for her to talk to their recruitment staff, so I didn't have to directly ask a partner, just to kind of test the waters. So I think that was where it was more helpful than had I been on my own.

The first three words that come to mind when I think of BCG Attorney Search are big, opportunity, and overall knowledgeable.

I would describe it as full of experience and opportunities. Keeping things confidential, like as you will too. So if you reach out, make sure both sides are confidential and I think that is respected. I like that. I would say there are a lot of people, I think I had six or seven people from BCG at one time or another connect with me on LinkedIn within about a three month span. I would say they are not all created equal. I would say talk to, and look at background and experience, before you decide which person you want to be your primary contact.

Thanks! You guys helped me find a job so that's the best benefit! I loved working with Patrick he was very nice, professional, and offered very helpful advice with the interview. I also appreciated that you negotiated for salary. It was a great experience although I haven't worked with any other legal recruiters so I would recommend you to anyone.

The responsiveness, whether it was by email or by phone call. And then keeping on track of the schedule of the interviews I had. I would always get text messages beforehand. The responsiveness was very good.

My favorite thing overall was that it streamlined the process for me. [There is] no way I would be able to devote the time required to gather materials and put together cover letters and mass mail. It allowed me to work at my prior job and allowed the process to move forward even though I couldn't devote all my day to it.

Thank you so much for taking the time to prepare me for the interview. Without your guidance, I most certainly would not have been as crisp as I was that day!
