When you are looking at various law recruitment websites, the last thing you want to do is sign into one of the large public websites, these sites have many members, and many are applying for the same position, in fact, sometimes even more than a thousand people will apply for a single opening. This reduces your odds of getting that job dramatically.

You should stick to the smaller, private law recruitment websites that offer you a chance of finding a job. These smaller recruiter sights only allow a handful of resumes sent to the open positions rather than thousands. If you are qualified for the positions the odds are a lot better that you will get a job.


One of the things that many people in the legal profession forget about is their resume. They assume that just because they have the education and the experience that they are more likely to land a position quicker using the law recruitment websites. But if you don’t write a resume to explain why you want, and would be good at the position they will never know if you are the person they are looking for.

If you are using an attorney recruitment website and still are not getting results, it is time to have a professional resume writer look at your resume to see where you need improvements. A professional written resume is more likely to get you noticed than your experience alone. Furthermore, you cannot expect to use websites for legal recruitment if you are not going to do your own part making sure your resume is at its full potential.

Many large public job boards have recruiters that collect resumes and then have so many resumes that they literally are over loaded. Have you ever applied for one position and then months later you were contacted by a recruiter for a position you never applied for?
