Attorneys
Hughes & Sloan has a nearly 20+ year track record of placing lawyers into the nation’s most prestigious law firms and corporate legal departments. For our law firm clients, we place lateral associates, Partners/Practice Groups and assist in Law Firm mergers. For our in-house clients, we have placed Corporate Counsel at all levels, including General Counsels.
The Process
Our recruiters will need a current resume and law school transcript so we can speak intelligently with you about your background and experience. We will spend extra time with you to find out about what type of opportunity you are seeking, relocation preferences, salary requirements, etc. If we have a client that is looking for an attorney with your skills, we will talk with you about the opportunity in detail.
Complete Confidentiality
We hold your resume and our conversations in the strictest confidence. We never forward your resume to our client without your express permission to do so. Throughout the entire process, you retain control over where your resume is sent.
Full Service
As soon as our client responds, your recruiter will share the feedback with you. We will schedule the interview and develop the itinerary. We’ll be there as necessary, refining resumes and interview skills, and providing guidance in salary and relocation package negotiations. All fees are paid by the client, so there is never a charge to you.
Successful Applicant Profile
Hughes & Sloan does not set the hiring criteria; rather, our clients give us specific search requirements. The majority of attorneys we place share the following characteristics:
Law Firms:
* Minimum full-time employment of 1 year
* Graduation from a top ranking law school
* Placement in the top 25% of law school class
Because our clients actively engage in on-campus recruiting, we are rarely able to place recent graduates.
Corporate Legal Departments:
* Minimum full-time employment of 3 years
* Law firm experience in a commercial practice
* Graduation from a top ranking law school
We review every resume we receive and respond accordingly. Please submit resume to inquiry@hughesandsloan.com
