Yesterday, Marcus (President of The Advocates) interviewed a candidate applying for an internal position at our firm, and the candidate followed up immediately with a thank you email and a very thoughtful question.     He asked:  The values listed on your website really resonate with me. Do any of them speak to you more than others?   Marcus’ answer was something like: Choosing my favorite value from our nine values is difficult. It’s sort of like asking me to pick my favorite child!! I heard something the other day about listening -- that true, active listening is an act of love. Now that sounds corny in a business context, but if you look at our values: Diversity & Belonging, Care, Advocacy, Teamwork, Integrity, Understanding, Community, Fun, and Urgency, in total, they paint a picture of true caring about each other, our community, our clients and our candidates. To some extent, all of our values require trying to meet people where they are and truly listening to and hearing them.   That is at the core of what we try to do. Of course, I run a business, and businesses exist to earn money and create value. But, running our business that way leads to success and positive outcomes including money. I find that the rewards exceed any individual outcomes when they are centered on our values.    If this resonates with you, we’re hiring! Check out our open positions. https://lnkd.in/gPmXfg5a    #values #deib #care #advocacy #teamwork #integrity #understanding #community #fun #urgency #legalrecruiting

As with anything the first few moments, days or weeks tend to be the lovey dovey honeymoon period and that is expected because it’s new and the rose tinted glasses are operating in full effect. It’s been a little over a month now that I’ve been at Redlaw recruitment and I’ve just made my first placement as a legal tech recruiter! Honestly I’ve never been happier in my career and that’s largely due to the expert guidance and support from the fellow beside me in the picture below. Having someone believe in you goes a long way especially when the incessant nagging voice of the imposter in your mind threatens to derail your progress. I’m grateful for how it’s been going so far and hopefully you’ll all hear me celebrating many more milestones at Redlaw in the near future. “Remain authentic and continue to be world class at the basics” is my mantra and I’m excited to continue documenting my journey for whoever is interested to follow it. #career #growth #legaltechrecruitment #legal #techrecruiter #recruitment #legaltechnology

Second Chance Employment refers to the hiring of individuals who have criminal records or have faced significant barriers to employment due to past mistakes, incarcerations, or convictions. The idea behind this concept is to provide these individuals with an opportunity to reintegrate into the workforce and society. Companies embracing second chance employment have a diverse range of skill sets and perspectives, which can result in a better bottom line! Have your company adopted second chance hiring practices? If not, I'd love to connect and chat on ways we could work together.

👋 Grateful to have some new connections, so let me (re)introduce myself. After 15+ years as a commercial litigator, I pivoted to legal recruiting. My passion has always been the human side of law practice (hiring, mentoring, relationships), so it's a natural fit, and I love this new challenge. 💙 Here's what I do: 👉 Attorneys: I'll get to know you, what you do, what's important to you, where you'd like to be - and I'll work hard to help you get there. I can provide strategic search assistance, market intel, and general career advice, and ideally we'll work together over time. 👉 Hiring Managers: I'll get to know you, your team, and the intangibles that make a new hire successful. My approach is consultative, and I'll draw on decades of industry and law firm management experience to help your practice grow and thrive - again, staying in touch as your firm and the market evolve. It's great to meet you! Let's get started: [email protected]. #careers #lawjobs #lawfirm #attorney

Employers - stop doing this now! 🤬😖🤬😖🤬😖😡😖😡😖🤬😖 Like it or not, there is a massive shortage of great legal talent in the job marketplace currently. So, when you see one you like (and that likes you), stop playing Billy Big-Balls and start rolling out the red carpet. You are NOT their only choice. Delay, and they WILL go elsewhere.

I love Dave’s Killer Bread. It’s a healthy alternative to a lot of the bland, over-processed breads you see in a typical grocery store. I also love Dave’s Killer Bread as a company. Dave, the owner, believes in second-chance hiring and has policies and actions in place to support it. In fact, Dave himself was once given a second chance after being incarcerated. His is a pretty good success story. Second-chance hiring, or fair-chance hiring, is pro lingo for hiring those with criminal convictions, and it’s one way companies can move the needle on their DEI efforts as they tap into real talent. As recruiters at Latina Chief, we talk to hiring managers every day hoping to accomplish both of those things. And while hiring people with criminal records is not realistic for every role or in every company, a lot more companies could stand to consider it. #latinachief #executivesearch #diversityrecruitment
