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.
Legal Support Specialist
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!
Legal Administrator
Jillian is the best recruiter I’ve ever worked with. She listened to my needs, helped me with my resume, and gave the best pre-interview pep talks. I had a medical emergency the night before my interview, and she was able to help me get it rescheduled quickly while also being incredibly empathetic. She helped me land my dream job! 1000/10 I would absolutely recommend working with her.
Employment Associate
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 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.
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.
Associate Attorney
Joe has been amazing through the entire job search process. He has a very good eye when it comes to perfectly matching candidates and new job opportunities. He walked me through the entire process and made it as seamless as possible. He is always a text or call away if anything comes up or you just need some reassurance. If you are looking for a recruiter to help you find your next chapter, contact Joe! He is brilliant at what he does. You will be in great hands with him!!
Legal Assistant
We contracted Joe to assist us in our Docket Specialist search. He was knowledgeable of the market and quick to respond and assist us in identifying someone for our niche industry. We appreciated how quickly everything came together and his accuracy in targeting the right candidate with proper skill sets for this position.
Director of Human Resources & Operations
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
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.
Staff Attorney
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
Ana is fantastic! She helped me find a firm that matched what I was looking for perfectly and was incredibly supportive and responsive throughout the entire process. Truly a pleasure to work with and would recommend her to anyone looking for a change.
