In-House
Our Record
Founded in 1982, New England Legal Search is the premier in-house counsel recruiting firm in the region. We have a proven record of success, working with companies of all sizes, from privately held start-ups to Fortune 100 corporations, as well as a variety of nonprofit institutions. Our clients are involved in numerous industries, including biotechnology/life sciences, information technology, thermodynamics, manufacturing, financial services, real estate, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, telecommunications, retail, e-commerce, sports, entertainment, publishing, environmental, and health care.
Our Advantage
We are regularly involved in a wide range of corporate counsel searches, from general counsel positions to junior-level staff attorneys. We also have long-standing relationships with countless in-house attorneys, from general counsels to staff attorneys, who we have advised through their own career development. These combined on-going activities provide us with ready access to a pool of highly-qualified pre-screened potential candidates for virtually any in-house position. As our client references will attest, New England Legal Search has distinguished itself by excessive attention to our clients’ specific organizational and personal needs and our ability to find and present candidates who are well-suited to those needs.
Our Approach
We meet with our in-house clients prior to engaging in any search activities to help develop a position profile and identify the technical and personal requirements of the particular position. Through this process we become better equipped to screen candidates prior to a client’s first set of interviews with a candidate. We conduct an in-person interview with all of our local candidates or an in-depth phone interview with out-of-town candidates prior to presenting a candidate’s resume to our clients. We have found that our policies of client consultation and candidate screening enable us to meet our clients’ staffing needs promptly and accurately. This leads to a permanent and mutually beneficial employment relationship between our clients and candidates.
