Case Study: a leading boutique firm places a plaintiff-side labor & employment attorney with BCG Attorney Search

Plaintiff-side Labor & Employment Attorney Placed at Boutique Firm

BCG Attorney Search helped a Leading Boutique Firm, a plaintiff-side labor and employment boutique in Washington, D.C., hire a highly qualified attorney whose background was unusually public-interest focused. The candidate had strong academic credentials, clerkship-like public interest experience, and only a short tenure at a prior firm, creating a challenge around how his nontraditional path would be viewed by law firms.

BCG Attorney Search targeted a small set of relevant plaintiff-side labor and employment and ERISA firms and quickly connected the candidate with the right partner at the Leading Boutique Firm. BCG Attorney Search arranged an interview that turned into an offer after a single phone call, and the candidate accepted after just one interview and seven total firm submissions, creating a fast and highly successful placement with minimal market outreach.
