Joe has been the best recruiter I have ever worked with. He was very informative when it came to the job I was interviewing for. He helped put me at ease when I was nervous for my interviews and gave me some great pointers about interviewing well. I was able to call him at any time if I had any questions and he was always responsive. He helped me get an amazing job offer at a global firm. I recommend working with Joe for anyone that is looking for a job.

Joe helped me get a job with a great law firm in downtown Chicago as I was trying to relocate from D.C. He was very knowledgeable about the position for which I was applying and truly shepherded my application through the process. He wasn’t like a lot of recruiters who submit your application and then you never hear from them again. He kept me regularly updated about where I stood among other candidates and what the next steps were. Once I got an interview, he helped me prepare, gave me some pro-tips, and even offered to get me to and from the airport. I cannot thank Joe enough for his professionalism, honesty, and encouragement.

I worked with Michael to find and secure a lateral position at another firm. Throughout the experience, I enjoyed working with Michael. He was knowledgeable about the legal market, communicative, and an all-around pleasant person. I would highly recommend working with Michael if you are interested in making a move during your legal career.

Joe is the best there is. His knowledge of the field is matched only by his responsiveness and desire to find the exact right fit for his clients. When I first contacted him, I was at sea, confused about how to take the next step in my career. Joe not only facilitated my career shift, but also walked me through the entire process, providing sound advice with the comfort and ease of a seasoned professional. I’m not making another move without consulting Joe first.

Joe is amazing! I had interviews (multiple) within two days of speaking to Joe about my interests and potential opportunities. I accepted a position two weeks from the date of my first call with Joe. He gave me candid advice, had my back, and bridged any communication gaps between me, as a candidate, and the firm. His follow up is impeccable! Thanks Joe.

Associate Attorney
I’ve dealt with several legal recruiters the past few years and Joe was far and away the best to work with. When he first reached out to me, I was deep in the interview process with an opportunity I found on my own. While he did encourage me to at least consider the firm he wanted to pitch, he also provided advice and counsel on how to navigate the process I was already engaged in. It spoke volumes about Joe’s value as an ally to anyone looking for a new opportunity: he is truly there to help. I ultimately interviewed with and accepted an offer from the firm Joe pitched to me, and after starting that job I am confident it was the right fit for me. Throughout the entire process, Joe was easily accessible, and provided sage advice at every step. In short, he was instrumental in my successful job search. If a friend in the legal industry ever told me they were looking for a new opportunity, I’d immediately point them in Joe’s direction.

Joe is a pleasure to work with. Within two days of speaking with Joe I was scheduled to interview at a firm in downtown Chicago. Within two weeks, I was hired. Joe was extremely communicative and helpful throughout the process. If I ever had any questions, he would answer them immediately. Joe is not like other recruiters who submit your application and then disappear. I truly recommend him if you are looking to make a career move.

Associate Attorney
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.

Joe was incredibly helpful with getting me my new role! He made the entire process easy to understand and made sure I stayed updated through it all. I was happy to work with him and would do so again in a heartbeat.

I have worked with recruiters in the past, but none like Joe. The level of personal attention he provides distinguishes him from the rest. He has an incredible ability to not only establish a personal rapport but see beyond what is written on paper and ask the right questions. Patient and insightful, I very much enjoyed working with him and have already recommended him to friends.

Joe has been a huge help on multiple occasions to fill job openings successfully. He understands our needs and only sends potential candidates that are relevant to our openings. In addition, he is very easy to work with overall. Highly recommend!

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.
