Job description

This is a temporary recruiting role focused on finding lawyers and law firm candidates, mostly through outbound sourcing. A strong candidate has several years of full cycle legal recruiting, ideally with high volume agency work, and can run many similar openings at once while keeping candidates and hiring managers well informed. Comfort with recruiting tools and the ability to build a sourcing process from scratch matter here.

How it fits the AI era

AI speeds up parts of recruiting like reviewing applications and surfacing candidates, which fits a company whose product automates legal workflows. The human side stays central: judging legal talent, persuading busy lawyers, and matching people to the right opening. Someone who is curious about these tools and uses them to work faster will fit well.

How it builds AI experience

The role offers hands on practice using recruiting technology and sourcing tools in a company that builds AI for legal work. A candidate can build relevant experience by getting fluent with applicant tracking systems and LinkedIn Recruiter and by learning how AI assisted sourcing and screening actually work. Understanding how lawyers are titled and engaged in private markets adds to that.

Worth showing

• Full cycle legal recruiting
• High volume agency sourcing
• LinkedIn Recruiter fluency
• Lawyer title and pay knowledge
