About San Diego, California
San Diego (SD) Legal Recruiters
''The San Diego office strives to embody BCG Attorney Search's core value of finding great jobs for top attorneys. Our wealth of knowledge and experience in the west coast legal market is unparalleled.''
BCG Attorney Search San Diego recruiters have a dynamic approach to the search process. As former attorneys at top law firms, we understand the unique demands of the profession and the inner workings of the hiring process. We are unique among legal recruitment firms in that we take the time to personally connect with and understand our candidates, and tailor the process to each candidate's specific strengths and needs. From crafting personalized cover letters to coaching a candidate through the interview and offer process, we go above and beyond the average recruiting firm.
The Network
All of our legal recruiters possess extensive knowledge of the legal marketplace. They monitor US and international law job openings so that our candidates are first in line for interviews with the most prestigious law firms. Our contacts include managing partners, practice group heads, and recruiting and human resource professionals. BCG Attorney Search focuses on creating long-term relationships with our law firm clients and candidates and reaching out to broaden our network each day.
Representation and Professionalism
BCG Attorney Search San Diego is well known for our standard of representation, professionalism and ethical approach to the search process. Our relationships with the law firms we service, and our deep knowledge of each firm's culture, expertise, and clients allow us to quickly determine where each candidate might find the most appropriate position. Our legal recruiters place a high priority on thoroughly getting to know each attorney we represent, listening to what they need, and guiding them to the right fit.
National and International Placements
We are not limited geographically with respect to where we make placements. Although our San Diego office serves as our "home base" and is the largest market we cover, we are also able to provide opportunities across the entire western US, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. We also work with our BCG colleagues nationally to ensure that any candidate seeking to also explore jobs outside of the western region (including international placements) can do so via our other BCG offices across the country.

Principles for Success
BCG Attorney Search San Diego has crafted a unique set of principles for success. First and foremost, we listen and care about each candidate's particular needs to ensure our attorneys get the best law jobs. We take the time to hear what our candidates have to say about their career aspirations, geographic and personal needs, skills, and experience. Additionally, we carve out time to investigate relevant jobs for attorneys to ensure the best fit between the law firm and a prospective candidate. As our experienced legal recruiters know, without taking the time to understand the job and the candidate, it is difficult to make a lasting employment match. Finally, we guide each candidate through the process to the right fit.
We utilize our deep knowledge of each law firm. Our legal recruiters have longstanding relationships and vast professional networks with the law firms we service. Our knowledge of each law firm's culture, expertise, and clients provide candidates and law firms the unique opportunity to experience the perfect employment fit.
We place the highest priority on ethical responsibility and confidentiality. At all times BCG Attorney Search is a professional legal recruitment firm that maintains your privacy and confidentiality. Your job search is kept confidential, and we only submit your information to job openings with your explicit approval. We pride ourselves on upholding our standards of conduct at all times, which includes handling your materials with the upmost confidentially, knowing your career goals, knowing the firms we represent, and keeping you informed about each step of the recruitment process, including how we present you to law firms. For more information, review the BCG Attorney Search Code of Conduct.
We go the extra mile to ensure the most effective presentation and follow-up for each candidate. Our legal recruiters will meet face-to-face whenever possible to prepare a candidate for each phase of the legal recruitment process. Our legal recruiters are available ''24 hours a day and 7 days a week.'' While some legal recruiters follow a step-by-step procedure, our legal recruiters utilize our recipe for success and think outside the box to creatively present our candidates to the top law firms. After the interview, our legal recruiters take the time to follow up with both candidates and law firm clients. We strive to cultivate nothing less than the perfect fit.
The Law Firm Advantage
Law firms can expect a thorough screening of each candidate's legal expertise, as well as a pre-determination of whether that candidate's personality, geographic needs, and work ethic will fit with their firm. Each candidate will be questioned regarding their reasons for living in a geographic area. Each candidate will be asked a series of questions to ensure the candidate is a fit for the underlying firm culture including the billable hour requirements and any other specified criteria.
Due to our knowledge of each market we service and the practice of law, law firms can rely on our recruiters as experts in the legal market. Our legal recruiters are members of the legal recruitment community with longstanding relationships with Am Law 100/200 locally and nationally. Despite our expertise, our legal recruiters treat every search as though it is a fresh start to ensure that law firms get candidates that will fulfill the roles that are required for the job.
At all times, law firms can expect professionalism, responsiveness to their needs, and an ethical approach to the process from all of our recruiters. When a law firm partakes of the BCG Law Firm Advantage, the law firm is subscribing to the BCG Attorney Search Code of Conduct, which ensures we will know the firm's hiring needs, know the attorney clients we present, present only qualified candidates, ensure the firm's confidentiality, and that each interaction will meet our superior customer service requirements.
