Brian and Lynn placed me at a top law firm, and I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking an excellent legal job. My goal was to work at a law firm where I could make a valuable contribution with my particular background. From the first day that I began working with Brian and Lynn, they were incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and supportive. They gave me invaluable advice and answered all of my questions throughout the process. Brian and Lynn worked very hard in finding every opportunity that could be a good fit for me. They are highly regarded and well connected in the legal community, so I knew that I was in good hands. Brian and Lynn placed me at a law firm that is the perfect fit for me given my career aspirations and I am very grateful for all their help.

[BCG Attorney Search] responded to my correspondence very quickly. They seemed to be more proactive than everybody else I have worked with. I guess those are the two things that probably jump out at me. I felt like because you were so proactive I didn’t have to be simultaneously looking. If a job hit the market I trust that you guys would find it. [BCG Attorney Search is] proactive, helpful, and timely. The best legal recruiter I’ve worked with. You are a great recruiting firm that actually seems interested in helping me find a job and not just filling a current vacancy.

[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. BCG Attorney Search

[The best part was] the volume of applications you sent out in a very short period of time. [Working with BCG made my job search easier because] I found a job. [BCG is] efficient, professional, and responsive. I worked with one other local recruiter and BCG was much better.

I thought they [BCG Attorney Search] were helpful in an affirmative way, looking for opportunities for me, and I thought that the interview prep was good. You got [me] an opportunity that I wouldn’t have seen [otherwise]. [BCG is] effective, helpful, and resourceful. You were better than the other recruiters I had talked to. [BCG is] very helpful, you should talk to them.

[My] favorite thing [about BCG] is Jennifer. She’s a really, really nice person, straight shooter, and fun to talk to. She’s an excellent person to be doing this kind of thing. I have worked with a bunch [of other recruiters]. I think you would be number one at this stage. I’ve worked with two other ones on this job search and you guys did more for me in terms of interviews and obviously you placed me. [There are] a lot of firms that you work with, so statistically there is good opportunity there.

I liked the amount of opportunities that were available, the responsiveness of the person I worked with, and the amount of work, as well as the effort that was put into trying to get me the right job placement. Working with BCG made my job search easier because you were able to consolidate all of the opportunities that were available to the BCG interface, and I was able to talk to someone directly about more of the details of what I was looking for that you can’t really express through the written word. BCG was well run and professional. You were definitely more comprehensive than other firms. I got a lot of opportunities from BCG. BCG will work hard to focus their efforts on what you want. They are focused on the type of work you’re looking for.

My recruiter recently worked with me when I decided to change firms, and was a terrific resource throughout the whole process. My recruiter worked long hours to make sure that I was exposed to as many quality opportunities as possible and always was available for advice or to answer any questions I had. I wouldn’t be at my wonderful new firm without my California recruiter’s help and dedication! My recruiter is fantastic.

They were very good about scheduling the calls, getting the process rolling. I started working with someone who was in California and he transferred me to an associate in New York. The entire process was basically seamless. Margaret picked up where Brian left off. I really appreciated the responsiveness and being able to get the process rolling quickly.It made it a whole lot easier because BCG had their eye and ear to the ground and were able to see what openings were there and get me in the door, which I wasn’t able to do on my own. I was also abroad and trying to transfer home so I really didn’t have an ear to the ground. I needed someone to advocate on my behalf in the states while I was abroad.I only worked with one other recruiter and he didn’t place me. And then I started working with BCG and you did. I think it’s pretty clear that you’re better than him. I would recommend you.

I was just notified yesterday that Fenwick is inviting me for a phone interview. It’s all thanks to my California recruiter. I am extremely grateful for their help (and the help of the BCG team in general) and will forever be in their debt.

Margaret Gilleran, the recruiter I worked with, was responsive. [The first three words that come to mind when I think of BCG are] attorney search and good. [I would] recommend [BCG to others].
