The Law Staff Difference | The First Conversation

Most people brace for a recruiter call. They've had their fair share of those that open with a job description before they've even said hello - the ones that feel like being sold to.

Ours start differently. Our advisors ask what's actually missing before they ask anything about a CV - is it the work itself, the people, the hours, the progression? Sometimes that conversation doesn't lead to a role at all, not for months. Sometimes it just means someone finally asked the right question.

That's a deliberate approach, a strategy we have put in place that makes every conversation that follows built on trust.

Follow along for the rest of the series - this is what the process actually looks like from the other side. 👇

Job tip: add months of employment to your CV - not just years.

2023-2025 could mean three months or three years, and this could leave a recruiter or employer skimming your CV in a few seconds more confused. When they can see 'March 2023 - November 2023', they understand your experience straight away, and that's exactly what you want.
