Our Approach to Legal Executive Search
At Keller, we understand the intricate and time-sensitive nature of legal recruitment. For this reason, we work closely with our clients and conduct an exhaustive research process to ensure that we understand their needs, as well as their company culture. It is our goal to assist companies in solving their legal recruitment challenges, achieving their goals, and reaching success.
To ensure that you find the best fit for your team, legal department, or law firm, Keller employs a rigorous search process committed to finding experienced, diverse talent. We also assist in the development and retention of candidates.
At Keller, we aim to supply law firms and corporate legal departments with highly qualified legal professionals who satisfy the job requirements and fit into your organizational culture. We take a very methodical approach to our recruitment, carefully matching your hiring needs with the professional goals of your new legal team member.
Keller has earned a trusted leadership role in the industry with our strategic and thorough approach to legal recruitment. First, we analyze your organization’s legal requirements, culture, and strategic objectives in detail. With this deep understanding, we can make informed and effective recruitment decisions based on your firm’s legal expertise needs.
Keller’s team of specialized recruiters utilizes advanced market insights and talent analytics to ensure our candidate profiles align with your current and future objectives. We benchmark against your existing legal leadership, identify skill gaps, and source top-tier talent to add immediate value to your team.
Based on this insight, we then undertake a targeted search within our large network to find legal professionals who are the best match for your organization’s specific needs. With our industry relationships and state-of-the-art applicant tracking systems, we can reach a broad range of exceptional legal candidates, including those who may not be actively looking for a new role. These connections also give us access to passive talent, which puts you ahead of the curve in legal recruitment.
Once we identify potential candidates, we thoroughly evaluate their background, criminal record, and reference checks. In addition, our experienced recruiters use psychometric assessments to ensure that candidates have the right leadership qualities and are a good fit for your firm’s culture.
After these assessments, we present you with a hand-selected shortlist of top legal candidates who fit your organization’s specific operational and leadership goals and are ready to integrate into your legal team seamlessly.
