How Do Recruiters Get Paid?

I get a lot of questions about how the legal recruiting business works. My latest article in Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly is an attempt to answer some of the more common questions and point out some of the risks that are part and parcel of being in the search business.

Frankly, I think recruiting is a great way to earn a living and I feel very fortunate that I discovered this business. I also feel very fortunate that I now get to work with a great group of recruiters (i.e. my colleagues at the other BCG offices.) Like any business, recruiting has its moments. But the rewards of helping people with their careers far outweighs some of the real frustration that we all experience.

BCG is actually looking to add recruiters in virtually every office. So let us know if you are interested!
