BCG Attorney Search Reviews

In May 2011 I sent an inquiry to BCG Attorney Search indicating my desire to find new employment as a litigation associate. I was promptly contacted by my Los Angeles recruiter, and couldn't have been luckier. My recruiter worked tirelessly to help me find the right firm, counseled me through the interview process and was a wonderful sounding board for me to ask questions about the recruiting/interview process and legal market. I found my recruiter to be responsive, knowledgeable and professional, but also personable and friendly, which is absolutely critical because I was making a large life decision by changing jobs. One very special attribute about my recruiter that I found refreshing was the fact that they were not pushy, as many recruiters can be. My recruiter understood and respected the traits that I was looking for in a firm, and did not try to push me into the wrong placement just so they could make a commission. I highly recommend my recruiter, and would use them again in the future if the need ever arises.

BCG delivered as promised and more. I knew finding a job in D.C. while coming from Texas would be hard, but they made it possible. My recruiter was there to answer my questions, gave me great tips, and always followed up with me and the different firms I interviewed at. As I talk to other attorneys about their experience with different recruiters, I can see that I was lucky to have someone like her work with me. I highly recommend BCG for anyone ready to make a career move.

You were an outstanding recruiter--the best I have ever worked with--and I will recommend you to the skies to anyone who is in need of your services.

Very easy to get in touch with my legal placement professional. It was very quick! The very first job that she talked to me about was the one I ended up getting so that was pretty awesome. She recommend it and I didn't even know about the position or the firm. She was very attentive and paid attention to my needs and what I was requesting. She wasn't sending me many jobs that I wasn't interested in. I let her know that I wasn't interested in working on the Westside and very few firms that were on the Westside were sent to me. With other recruiters, the majority of the stuff they sent me was on the Westside even when I specified differently. She always responded quickly and listened to my requests and followed through with them. She followed up with the employer and kept me in the loop of everything that was happening. It was just a wonderful experience. The first job she sent me I got so that is about as easy as it gets!Q. Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's you may have used in the past?A. Way better! The other recruiters were just interested in putting me in any job, they didn't care about the job I wanted.

Thank you so much for your feedback and insights. I definitely found our conversation today to be very helpful, and I expect that I will walk into my interviews with much more confidence because of it. Your cover letter to the firm was simply incredible and I get the impression that you are very successful in your job and I am happy to be working with you!

Sarah responded to my initial inquiry very quickly. She was amiable, professional, positive and diligent throughout our interactions. She really connected with me on my unique situation and served as a guide throughout my entire process (which took a little over a year in total, including about 7 months while connected with Sarah). Conversations with her gave me confidence and encouragement. Sarah was instrumental in getting me a job. I was trying to make a big jump in practice areas (from U.S. federal financial regulatory and transactional work in an AM 100 firm with a cross-border focus to a family law litigation practice), and would have been totally lost in the process without her. She reached out to firms all across my region and her contacts helped connect me with the firm that ultimately hired me. She also helped me prepare for interviews, navigate the offer process to leverage another firm's offer to my benefit, and generally sift through the more personal elements associated with taking a big career risk. I could not be more happy with the firm I was able to get a job with. This was the absolute best outcome I could have hoped for (and frankly probably wouldn't have thought possible on my own) when I began the process. This is absolutely thanks to Sarah's support.

I liked my legal placement professional. She helped me get this job, and I didn't realize that this was a position that was available.BCG was responsive, professional, and confident. I would say that you are the best recruiting firm. BCG was very helpful for me.

I wanted to thank you again for your help throughout the process. Not being from the area, your insight and knowledge of the local market was a tremendous help. I also appreciated your candor and advice when I was evaluating the various opportunities presented to me. Most of all, I am grateful you helped steer me towards the opportunity that was best for me. I would be glad to recommend you to any colleague considering making a professional change in the D.C./Northern VA market.

[My favorite thing about BCG Attorney Search was] the weekly emails. I didn't have to go searching for open positions, you did that. It was a good experience [working with BCG]. I have already referred other people. I had a good experience.

[One of my favorite things about working with BCG Attorney Search was] the convenience. I liked the online system for managing submissions and making approvals. I liked that everything was collected for me in one place. [I] like[d] getting that weekly report, that's been very helpful. It has some indication of progress every week. It's very cool I think. [BCG Attorney Search is] very professional, efficient and easy. You're definitely one of the top [legal recruiting companies]. I would say that if [someone is] looking to downsize their search, [that] you know get access to pretty much all the publicly available job postings out there. They should consider signing up with BCG and getting in touch with one of their recruiters.
