6 Reasons to Work with a Legal Recruiter if You’re an Employer

Many law firms and companies work with staffing agencies to fill job openings on their teams. These positions can be full-time, part-time, temporary, contract-to-hire, or direct-hire full-time. Although employers can recruit for the job openings on their own, it can typically be more efficient and cost-effective in the long run to work with recruiters.

Here are our top reasons to work with a legal recruiter if you’re an employer:

• You’ll spend less time on hiring, and more time on growing. Using an effective legal staffing agency to fill job openings allows the employer to focus on growing the company and continue projects without being slowed down by hiring. A staffing agency will look into its network of candidates and find a proper replacement.

• It can significantly reduce overhead costs. Did you know that losing good employees or hiring bad ones is a costly trend firms need to avoid? A recruiter will ensure you have the right match with proper screening and reference checks before you make the final decision. We highly suggest that you use our free vacancy cost calculator to calculate how much your vacancies and turnovers are costing you.

• The employer pays when the job is successfully completed. A staffing agency will charge you for their services once the job has been properly filled. You won’t have to pay for unnecessary or hidden fees throughout the hiring process. With Ave Staffing, we offer a placement guarantee to give you peace of mind in case our candidate doesn’t work out.

• Build strong relationships with recruiters and candidates. Many hiring managers are swamped with work, and working with genuine staffing agencies allows them to trust them to get the job done. Staffing agencies specialize in this, so the whole hiring and on-boarding process is much smoother. Many of Ave Staffing’s clients have been with us for years and referred by other clients. At the end of the day, you want to work with people you trust – so relationships matter.

• You’ll have a liaison between the company and the candidate. Having a middleman is incredibly helpful when it comes to scheduling interviews, preparing paperwork, and negotiating compensation.  Also, candidates tend to open up more to external recruiters and share information with them that they often won’t share with employers. And because of this, staffing specialists have a much better understanding of matching potential candidates with your job openings.

   

• A recruiter knows the ins and outs of the industry. When you work with a great staffing agency, you’ll gain access to the recruiter’s knowledge of salary ranges and network of skilled candidates open to work. Ave Staffing specializes in legal staffing. Because of this, we can better screen and assess candidates – especially if your are looking to staff your team in the legal industry.
