Senior Associate
Joseph had reached out to me regarding an opportunity he thought would be a great fit for my experience and an even better jump for my next career move. This was a position I would have otherwise never considered applying for. Not only did he help me along through the interview process, but he also always made a point to keep me apprised of all updates. He truly was a beacon of hope in the recruiting world and helped push me to see my future potential. Even after my start at this new position, Joe continued to follow up with me to check on my training and onboarding. Joseph continues to remind me of all the good recruiters can be out there. He does not just see me as a body to fill the position, but he treats me as a human with
goals and aspirations. It was not just about a commission to Joseph. It was about helping me find my happiness again and helping the firm find the leader they need to move back towards continued success. I know I have said it plenty, but I will always be thankful for Joseph reaching out to me when he did. He understands the roles he needs to fill, but also understands the kind of team player he needs in that role. It is not just about the tools one has, to Joseph, it is about the ability to use the tools they currently have in their kit.
IT Site Supervisor
Joe is absolutely amazing and a true professional. He stayed in communication with me throughout the entire process, not only with status updates but offering words of encouragement along the way. Joe really looks out for your best interests. If one door closed Joe was already set to help find the next opportunity. I cannot provide enough kind words to accurately describe Joe. I highly recommend him to any law firm professionals.
Lead Billing Coordinator
I highly recommend Joe. In one brief phone call he was able to ascertain what I was looking for in a candidate. Within the day he sent me two highly qualified applicants. One turned out to be the perfect fit, and 3 days later that position is now filled!
SVP Client Relations
I had the pleasure of working with Michael during my transition to a global law firm, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. His communication was consistent, clear, and genuinely supportive throughout every stage of the process. He ensured I was well informed, prepared, and confident as I navigated each step. What truly sets Michael apart is the level of personal care he brings to his work. Even after I accepted the position, he continued to check in, offering guidance and encouragement that felt more like the support of a trusted friend than simply a recruiter. Michael’s professionalism, integrity, and dedication made a significant impact on my career journey. I cannot speak highly enough of his expertise and the positive experience he provided. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a recruiter who is both highly skilled and genuinely invested in your success.

I cannot say enough great things about working with Ana. From start to finish, she truly went above and beyond in every possible way. As someone in the legal field, finding the right position — not just any position — was incredibly important to me. Ana understood that immediately. She took the time to learn what I was looking for professionally and personally, and she was genuinely invested in helping me find the best fit. Throughout the entire process, she was in constant communication, keeping me informed, prepared, and confident every step of the way. Her guidance, insight into the legal market, and attention to detail made what can often be a stressful experience feel seamless and manageable. I always felt supported and advocated for. If you are looking to work with a recruiter who is knowledgeable, responsive, professional, and truly cares about her candidates, I wholeheartedly recommend Ana.
Legal Assistant
Joseph is an excellent recruiter and a great person! I had never heard of Permanent Placements until I submitted my resume to LinkedIn for one position. Joe got in touch with me right away and wanted to set up a time to talk. We did, and I really liked him! I could tell he would find me a job or die trying. Joe then told me about a position at a firm I had heard of and was impressed by. He wanted to send my resume to this firm. I told him OK, and they reached out to him saying they wanted to meet me. Ultimately, I had two Zoom interviews and an eventual offer! In between the interviews, Joe made sure to get in touch and see if I had any questions or concerns. I am a nervous interviewee, so I went over my worries, and Joe & I talked them over. He was very reassuring and confident I would do well. Joe is an awesome recruiter, as I said before. He is everything one should be. When I got the offer from the firm, I sent him a thank you note expressing my gratitude. He responded back thanking me. It meant a lot that he took the additional time to acknowledge my thank you. I have been at my firm for almost five months now, and it’s a great fit! I will always be thankful to Joe and Permanent Placements for their efforts and help. It was a great experience.
Litigation Paralegal
It was such a pleasure to work with Joe. He was very knowledgeable about the legal hiring process and was great at keeping me updated on any developments. He also has a great personality, is easy to talk with, and has such a passion for what he does. I would definitely consider working with Joe again in the future if I were ever in need of a new job.

Joe is a wonderful individual with which to work. He does his very best to place individuals where they are able to thrive. He has been supportive in so many ways. I have appreciated working with him.
