Joe is the best recruiter I have worked with, as he has done an outstanding job for me over several years! You cannot go wrong hiring Joe.

Jeffrey S.

Partner

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.

Charlie I.

Legal Recruiting Specialist

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.

Sebastian C.

Corporate Associate

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.

Nick A.

Associate Attorney

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.

Maritza P.

Legal Support Specialist

Joe is a fantastic recruiter, hardworking, honest, reliable, and very friendly and approachable. Joe is a trusted and experienced recruiter who takes the time to get to know candidates and clients exceptionally well. Joe builds relationships easily, and handles things in a timely manner, pursuing the right course of action for both the client and candidate, ensuring a positive outcome for all. I heartly recommend Joe as a recruiter of choice.

Anne-Marie C.

Partner Recruitment Manager

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.

Hamza E.

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.

Shuntay Y.

Lead Billing Coordinator

I am very glad I discovered Joe Mayer when I was looking for a new permanent full-time position. He is very professional and has the skill of matching good people with good employers. I can’t believe I’ve been at my new job for a year now. It’s been a perfect fit! I highly recommend him for employers in search of talent, and for job seekers looking for a new position.

Karen B.

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.

Jacquelyn B.

Litigation Paralegal

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!

I trusted her with my career, and she delivered in every step of the process. Jillian’s vast network and deep connections to the legal industry helped me get in front of the top firms in the country.

I would recommend Jillian to anyone who is looking to make a change to their career! Jillian is an amazing person to work with.
