Why Hirenest

The Problem With Lateral Recruiting

Lateral hiring rose 16.4% last year. Recruiter quality hasn't kept pace. The average lateral search still takes 4-6 months and produces dozens of unvetted resumes. Candidates who don't match your practice area, let alone your sub-practice or firm culture.


Most recruiting databases classify attorneys into 10-15 practice areas. We classify into 219 because insurance coverage and insurance defense are different searches. Employment ERISA and employment discrimination are different searches.


Every candidate in our database is verified against state bar records. You see bar number, admission date, and status before you see a name. We tag practice side (plaintiff vs. defense) because that switch kills placements.


Contingency-based. You pay only when you hire.

What Hiring Partners Say

“

We needed an insurance coverage partner, not insurance defense and not general commercial. Hirenest understood the difference immediately. Three candidates in four days, all bar-verified. We hired one within the month.

“

Our previous recruiter sent 40 resumes. Half weren't even in our practice area. Hirenest sent five, all employment ERISA, all defense-side, all within our experience range. Night and day difference.

Hiring Partner
Mid-market firm, San Francisco
“

The fact that every candidate came with bar verification, admission date, and firm history before we even asked. That told us this was a different kind of recruiting firm. Contingency-based pricing sealed the deal.
