Joe is seriously a superstar! I was in a bind to move across the country in a short amount of time but wanted to have my job lined up. We spoke right after I put my resume out there. I had several interviews within that first week and had a job secured within two. He really cares about the people he is helping. _I’m so thankful for Joe and his assistance & help throughout this process. He is truly an amazing recruiter that knows what he’s doing. _
I’m finishing my 1st month and it’s all thanks to him for introducing me!

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!

Ms. Dent was instrumental in helping me acquire a new legal position that was responsive to my interests and skillet. Her coaching and assistance were fundamental in helping me change to a new field. She would take time to handle my calls, answered any questions, then gave me pertinent advice in handling the interview process. I was ultimately placed in a job I greatly enjoy. I cannot recommend her services highly enough as she is both professional and courteous in how she handles clients. If you’re looking for a new job, definitely seek her out.

Mr. Mayer is top-notch at what he does. I was looking for a change in my legal career, and he led me to the right place! I got a dream offer from an awesome Midwestern civil litigation defense firm. Please use Joseph Mayer’s services!

Jillian was a tremendous source of information and wisdom during my transition from a small management side labor and employment firm to a large national firm where navigating the do’s and don’ts was key. She really went above and beyond to make my job search easy and understood what I was looking for. Her strong contacts in the legal recruitment world gave me several options initially to pursue and consider. She really helped focus attention on the firm that would the best fit for me. I highly recommend her for others who are looking to make a change!

Permanent Placements LLC, Joe Mayer, was a great experience! Joe listened, really listened, to what our company was looking for in the “perfect” candidate. Joe sent candidates who were all qualified and a cultural fit for the position, it was difficult deciding because they were all so great. Again, thank you for listening to what our needs were and helping us fill more than one position. I look forward to working with you in the future!

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.
