BCG Attorney Search Reviews

I appreciated the streamlined process when my legal placement professional sent me a list of firms fitting my preferences and their open positions, and allowed me to look through them and let her know which I was interested in. My legal placement professional was responsive communicating between the firm and me, gave extra effort finding answers to my questions, and helpful submitting my paperwork. I liked that she's communication style was both professional and personable. The process was quick and didn't take too much time. It seemed like the search covered a lot of firms I was interested in.Q. Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's you may have used?A. I have otherwise only interacted with recruiters who contacted me in relation to a specific position at one firm. I preferred BCG's approach of showing me a selection of openings to choose from - it was more efficient and allowed me to give input.

Thank you once again for taking time out of your morning to speak with me today. I found your advice and guidance to be extremely helpful.

[My favorite thing about working with BCG is] the materials they provided for the interview process. I [also] feel like they knew what I was looking for. [They found] the position I was looking for and were able to find a place that fit what I was looking [for], rather than just any kind of opening. [Working with BCG made my job easier because it gave me] the ability to connect with a place that was a good match, and saved me a lot of time if I had to do it on my own. [The words that come to mind when I think of BCG are] efficiency, personable, and experienced. I would recommend the recruiter that I used because of her experience.

The cover letter, that the people I was working with drafted, I thought it was very thoughtful, and I appreciate the level of detail. Another thing I certainly appreciated during my experience working with BCG, is the amount of applications that the recruiter had been sending out on a daily basis. The volume of work that was done to help me secure position, definitely appreciated. It was easier because it took all of the leg work out of the equation for me, and to not have to research listings. To actually go through the process of submitting a formal application can be obviously very time consuming. Also had someone who could help me negotiate compensation packages, be the middleman, and take the awkwardness involved out of the situation in a very seamless, almost effortless experience for me. On a scale of zero to 10, I'd probably put it at 8.5, because prior to working with BCG, I did speak with several other recruiting agencies, and in the beginning, they would be very active and follow up timely, then very quickly the relationship would disintegrate and then I would never hear from them, so I guess compared to that, I would give it at at least an 8.5.

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

My legal placement professional was very professional and responsive. She had good insight on the process and made it a well to do process. You guys kind of did the search for me and made it much easier. That is what you look for when you go to a recruiting firm. I haven't actually used recruiting firms in the past successfully so I would say by default, top of the list!

My recruiters make a fantastic team. They helped guide me through the entire job search and had great tips, especially about interviewing. I was completely satisfied with my experience. If the need arose, I would definitely use them again. They were insightful, attentive, and extremely pleasant to work with. I highly recommend them.

I loved the responsiveness of my legal placement professional, and the weekly reports were super helpful, just knowing there was work going on. Also, one thing that was great, was just before the interview checking in with her and having her walk me through the interview (because I haven't interviewed in so long), she was kind of nervous about that process and she made herself available to calm nerves and walk me through everything. This was my first switch since graduating law school and so I just wasn't sure how this worked, but she explained the process and she was very open. She wasn't applying to firms that didn't fit what I wanted and I really appreciated that. She went after the jobs I really wanted and got out to those opportunities for me, so that was very helpful. I have never worked with a recruiter, and I thought that everything went really well. I got a job and so this worked out great.

[My favorite thing about working with BCG] was getting the notifications for job opportunities and then sending approvals for them. I appreciated the way BCG lined up the positions in an email notification every week and I would easily take a look and approve them. Ultimately it was successful and I got a job so I liked that. BCG has some educational materials about getting a job, videos and webinars and what not. I didn't avail myself to most of them but I found the format interesting and would go back and use them in the future should I have a need.

Recently, I had the privilege of working with my recruiter in your Chicago office and wanted to express how much I enjoyed working with them and BCG during my job search. Most candidates who have used other recruiters before BCG probably share the same story-a recruiter spends a short amount of time with a candidate and then wants to peddle a resume to a number of potential employers or sell you on an open position in another firm. Unlike recruiters at other organizations, my recruiter spent a considerable amount of time with me at the beginning of the process learning about my background, skill set, and motivations to find firms that would be a good fit. My recruiter was friendly and straightforward. They identified my strengths and weaknesses as a candidate and offered useful suggestions on preparing for interviews. My recruiter also prepared detailed summaries about me for firms that interviewers remarked were very helpful to them.
