BCG Attorney Search Reviews

I liked that you gave me a big list of firms [and] that I could check the ones I wanted [and uncheck] the ones I didn't want. I liked that you contacted me a lot. I worked a lot via text. That was easy for me to do discretely at work. I liked being constantly updated. When I had two offers I really appreciated that you [did] some negotiating for me between the two. It made it easier because I didn't feel like I had to spend all this time running through LinkedIn or Indeed or job sites. It made my search easier because it's nice when I see a big list of firms that potentially might have openings because [then] I get an idea of who's looking [and] what the market [is] like right now. And then of course everything was coordinated for me. So I could spend more time at my current job or just doing other things rather than just spending all my time emailing back and forth with HR management at various firms. I would say [BCG is] effective, friendly, and positive. I have worked with a couple recruiting companies and I would rank you as number one. I would describe you as having a really wide range. [You are] very aggressive in getting results, being very results oriented. I would [also] say [you are] modern and innovative. [You] clearly approach recruiting in a way that I think makes a lot of sense and is targeted to get results.

I worked with Becca primarily, but there were other recruiters involved who were very good. I think the best thing that they did that I noticed was different from other recruiters that I've worked with in the past is the strategic approach they took to send the applications in [and] send resumes in to a large number of places. I thought that made a lot of sense and it worked out really well. And they were great to work with. For me, it turned out I was kind of an unusual candidate. It turned out to be a very quick process...I wasn't expecting that. I think part of that was just because of the strategy of applying widely. I thought that was great. [When I think of BCG] honestly the first word that comes to mind is Harrison Barnes. [He is] one of the reasons I liked BCG before I got involved with you guys. He is kind of well-known in the law community. I've always liked his articles...there were one or two in particular that I had read, I think about getting back into big law after a leave that I think were very good and well put together...it kind of put me over the edge...that's what made me decide to reach out. I do have another recruiting friend. I think it's notable that I didn't go with his company for this. I've got another recruiter that I've worked with and they have even placed me in the past and I didn't go with them. I put you guys ahead of them in terms of just getting the job done. I would describe you guys as being very efficient [and] very focused on the end result, which is great. Again, I think the whole approach from the beginning was [to] get the best results in the most efficient way. I think that that's the right approach.

All conflicts and background checks have cleared! Thanks for all that you have done!

Some of my favorite things about working with BCG include the following: Personalized service - It felt as if they got to know my background, qualifications, and needs moving forward; Frequent contact - my recruiter kept me well up to date on my status with various organizations and new opportunities; Trust - I had faith in my recruiter to seek out appropriate positions. This lessened my burden of needing to constantly be monitoring postings as I knew she would present me with opportunities that were a good fit; and just having someone to bounce ideas off of, remind me of the basics, and focus my thoughts heading into interviews.Working with BCG saved me time and energy! My recruiter was the first filter for all jobs and only contacted me with options that were a possible fit.The first three words that come to mind when I think of BCG are effective, efficient and reliable.I would rank BCG as the best compared to other recruiters. If you are looking to move firms, you need to contact BCG. Whether you are causally searching or in the need for a quick move, my recruiter will be the person in your corner. She was constantly on the lookout for possible fits, prepped me for possible scenarios/outcomes at interviews and guided me though the offer process. She saved me time and energy and I would most certainly recommend her to others.

You work very hard and do an excellent job. After meeting with you, I came home and told my significant other that I wish that I had worked with you when I left my former firm. At the time, I thought all legal recruiters were essentially the same. I am pleasantly surprised that I was wrong. Thanks again!

My recruiters at BCG were very thorough. BCG had more direct knowledge within the markets that I was looking than I did. So they were able to source opportunities probably more effectively than I would have independently. The words effective, friendly, and helpful come to mind when I think of BCG. I would also describe BCG as useful.

After each interview, my recruiter provided me with solid feedback of my performance, including my strengths and weaknesses, it was invaluable. I got the impression that she was an old hand at this, she was very confident in her guidance. She also knew so many people in the industry and large amounts of detail about each firm.

I think probably the best thing was the quality of the listings and the comprehensiveness. It allowed me to concentrate more on the interviews and the subsequent parts of the process rather than all the applications. [I would describe BCG as] helpful [and] responsive. I would describe it as a good option if [you] want [a] recruiting position, particularly in the law firm stage.

Thank you very much for creating these programs to help legal professionals. I've watched a couple of webinars, videos and read the book "Attorney Job Search Secrets Revealed". I found these materials very inspiring and valuable.

I thought my legal placement professional was really great. She didn't push me into one corner or another. I had some really aggressive experiences with recruiters, one of whom actually disclosed to people at the firm that I was looking to try to attract them as well and things like that. I really appreciated that she handled herself ethically. My experience was professional and above board. BCG did all of the work, and they really earned their commission. They were aggressive in contact, and from my experience they did everything I would have wanted them to do.Working with BCG made my job easier because they provided all the listings and I submitted [my choices]. They gave me advice regarding how to interview and things like that. It was very good. The first three words that come to mind when I think of BCG are aggressive, large, and significant. I would rank BCG right at the top compared to other recruiting companies I have worked with. I'd recommend my legal placement professional. To me, just candidly, it is about the individuals. I was lucky to work with one of the best people, and I would recommend her. I think there were also great materials. To me it's 90% about your person and 10% about the firm.
