Law firms, corporate legal departments and government offices throughout Nigeria have come to use The Bar List to help meet their hiring needs.
The Bar List meets the legal staffing needs of law firms, companies and government offices by identifying and placing outstanding lawyers. We collaborate with senior management to determine the employer’s strategic goals, and provide candidates who genuinely enhance the employer’s reach, scope and depth. Our staffing solutions extend to individual practitioners whom we counsel concerning career transitions and specific opportunities using our insights and detailed knowledge of the legal market.
Our clients value our analytic, evaluative approach: we bring the insights gleaned from our long years of legal practice to every engagement. Before we recommend a meeting with a candidate, we conduct a rigorous analysis of credentials, employment history, personal temperament and career trajectory. It is our reputation for scrupulousness and integrity that has won us the loyalty of some of the most prominent law firms and companies in the country.
There is only one name in legal recruiting: The Bar List. We have earned our unrivalled reputation as the premier recruiting firm for lawyers nationwide by delivering precisely the lawyer required for every client need.
The Bar List has achieved a stellar reputation for integrity, professionalism and results in professional recruiting. We continuously strive for excellence and accept nothing less. Our clients and candidates have learned that we respect and value their time and they have come to respect and value our judgment. Our ethical standards are second to none. Our service, career guidance, resources, contacts and knowledge of the legal market provide results that are unparalleled in the legal recruiting industry.
We believe very much in the “soft sell” and never pressure candidates. We are thorough but not overbearing. We help lawyers find the jobs that they want, not just the jobs that want them. We listen to what you tell us and focus on ways to achieve your goals. When you work with us, your job search is a targeted one complete with strategy and focus. No wallpapering of curriculum vitae or sending out feelers to see what sticks. We will never submit a resume for any position without a lawyer’s express prior approval.
Finally, we maintain excellent relationships with our clients as well as with the lawyers who we work with. We are very proud of the relationships we have built over the years and of the trust that our clients place in us to find the right fit. Numerous lawyers and clients have appreciated the value we add to the search process and the well-respected advise we have provided in fostering career growth and business expansion.
We attempt to meet face-to-face with an organization’s hiring or recruiting contacts to better understand the client’s style, culture and professional personality. We seek to ensure that the goals and desires of our clients are met on all levels of the search process.
We identify the best legal opportunities available to fit with each person’s specific personal and professional career goals. Presently, our services are provided at no cost to lawyers. Our fees are paid exclusively by the employers we contract with to perform a search.
Projects are common in the legal industry. Temporary attorneys provide the expertise you need without the costs and space associated with a permanent employee. We work with our clients to reach a competitive remuneration for each candidate, based upon level of experience.
