Corporate and M&A Associate
I would recommend Joseph Mayer for his recruiting services. I found him to be true to his word. He followed up when required. He contacted me in advance of interviews to confirm I was prepared. After the interview he followed up and gave feedback.
Staff Attorney
Joe is terrific to work with! He’s a true business partner and differentiates himself with the quality candidates he provides. He’s been a lifesaver and I strongly recommend him.
Head of Human Resources (North America)
I cannot say enough kind words about Joe, he is one of the best recruiters I have worked with. He’s not only friendly and easy to work with, but he also has a lot of integrity and is generous with his time. When I was applying for positions, he was willing to take the time out of his day to discuss another position I had applied for that did not permit recruiter submissions. Joe wasn’t trying to push me to take just *any* job, he wanted me to find the *right* job. I really appreciated his low-pressure approach to recruiting and will definitely recommend him to others who are looking to advance their careers.
Litigation Associate Attorney
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.
Legal Assistant
I first met Jillian while interviewing for a summer associate position when I was in law school. She quickly became my go-to sounding board for career moves and was perhaps the only recruiter I’ve met who made me feel like my career truly matters to her because, when all the other recruiters stopped replying, she stuck with me all along. Earlier this year, she sent me an email with the subject line “saw this and thought of you”. She was not contracted with the particular law firm, so she encouraged me to reach out directly and coached me throughout the entire interview process. She didn’t benefit from it at all, except to encourage and support someone that she believed in. And that made all the difference. It’s not an overstatement to say that I would probably not be at my current firm if it wasn’t for her.
Corporate Associate
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.
Associate Attorney

Labor & Employment Attorney
Joe has been a valuable resource in sourcing and on-boarding technology resources. There have been numerous situations where Joe was provided limited time to identify a resource. In many of the situations, Joe delivered a quality/qualified candidate that was awarded the position. His attention to detail, knowledge of the business, and work ethic has made him a valuable asset.
Associate Director – Hosting Services
I have dealt with a lot of recruiters, but Joe Mayer and Ana Bird are truly outstanding. Many recruiters make you feel used or proverbially “pimped” and then discarded. This was the OPPOSITE of what I experienced with Joe and Ana. They overhauled my resume and taught me how to present an accurate yet upgraded version of my professional profile, while imparting wisdom on how to highlight the skills that key institutions are seeking. The experience of communicating and interacting with Joe and Ana was a tremendous value-add, as were the opportunities they put me in line with. This company combines big-corporation intelligence with personalized knowledge, coaching, and attention. A best-in-class experience!
Conflicts Attorney
In the many years that I was a prospective student, graduate, and now business professional I cannot say that I have ever been more thankful for the words of advice that I received while connecting with Joseph. After having the wonderful opportunity of chatting, not only did he provide me with excellent career advice but reassurance on what the future may entail as well. I cannot say that I have ever felt more confident in my future and true calling in life until having this conversation. Joseph is a well-rounded knowledgeable individual who evidently cares about the individuals he works with and goes above and beyond to ensure that he is doing what he can to ensure proper placements and candidates he may see as a good fit for positions. And if he doesn’t, not to worry – he will provide his advice and other alternatives to help you become the best version of yourself that you can be. Will definitely be reaching out again when the search for a new challenge or opportunity approaches.
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.
