Tried and true is this formula for winning the war for talent. If there is one article law firms and their people and culture teams should read this year it is this one! In a world where the battle for talent rages on, where NZ law firms are paying 10-20% higher starting salaries, US law firms are paying $50,000 referral fee rewards and UK firms are paying £150,000 for junior talent, firms must equip themselves with the best recruitment technology and a winning recruitment formula. Law firms are working harder than ever to hold on to their most valuable talent. Australian legal recruitment agencies are now actively employing agents on the ground in New Zealand to attract New Zealand lawyers to Australia due to the lack of top legal talent.  Before you can retain the best talent, you need to recruit it. Top performers are the most valued legal talent in any firm, and they are not typically actively seeking new opportunities. They aren’t on marketplace apps, announcing their availability on LinkedIn or responding to job ads. Now more than ever before law firms need to be in front of candidates long before they plan to make a move. This is paramount to successfully attracting and retaining exceptional lawyers. Leading law firms are focused on having a longer tail pipeline – identifying top talent in advance. In this article (see link below) we’ll walk you through the winning formula and what you need to do to stay ahead in the talent race using tech and a proactive recruitment strategy. This formula underpinned by the best recruitment tools that provide visibility of the comprehensive talent pool will ensure you can win the race to attract top quality legal talent in the future. https://lnkd.in/g6hpE2u8

In the heart of the UK, the West Midlands legal sector shines, showcasing resilience and innovation. It's no secret that dynamic trends are shaping the legal landscape here, with a specific drawing point being a surge in the adoption of legaltech. The contrast between traditional practices and cutting-edge technology is fostering a unique ecosystem in which legal professionals strive not just to adapt but to lead. Why does this matter? 🌟 Well, it's this blend of tradition and innovation that's creating unprecedented opportunities for both established law firms and new players in the region. And as legal recruitment specialists, we're at the forefront, keenly observing the demand for tech-savvy legal talent rising. Another noticeable trend is the growth in niche legal services.

The West Midlands legal sector is poised for robust growth. We're already seeing increased movement among candidates, with many seeking roles where they can be at the cutting edge of the legal profession, and firms are hungrily scouting talent that will not only understand but also drive their innovative agendas forward. If you're a legal professional captivated by the promise of technology, or a firm looking to bolster your team with industry-specific expertise, now is the time! 🚀 Let's chat about how we can place you in your perfect position or introduce you to your next game-changing hire.
