Private Equity Partners Left Out Of Biglaw’s Lateral Move Mania
Partners specializing in private equity have seen fewer lateral moves, while many other specialties are seeing increases.
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.

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.

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!

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 helped me through the interview process with my current employer. He took his time speaking with me and gave me solid advice. He really pushed me to think about myself and my happiness, which was extremely helpful. If you are in the market for a new position, I would recommend working with Joe.

Professional Development Specialist
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
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.

Jillian is the perfect recruiter to represent you in an ever-growing competitive market. I first met Jillian when she reached out to me about switching law firms. While most recruiters approach you with an overly aggressive attitude, she came across as welcoming and understanding. She was incredibly responsive and always knew the right next steps to take. She also made sure I was prepared for every interview and had helpful tips to make sure each stage of the recruitment process was a breeze. I would highly recommend Jillian to anyone who is looking to make a switch in their career. Jillian is the perfect recruiter to represent you in an ever-growing competitive market.

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.

Joe stood out to me right away since he understood the next step I wanted to take in my career. When I was ready to make a change, most recruiters sent me positions that did not meet my expectations; the positions typically had my same job title and duties, but I was looking to expand beyond the role I had at the time. Joe helped me make the leap that I wanted to a new role in recruiting, and he made me feel confident in my ability to do so. He encouraged me throughout the entire interview process and provided me with constructive feedback. I am very thankful for getting the opportunity to work with Joe and for his help in finding the perfect fit for me.

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.
