Argyll Scott

2011-12-06T16:49:00.003-05:00

Argyll Scott's Legal Practice works with clients and candidates across In-House and Private Practice on both a permanent and interim basis at all levels of qualification.

We understand the complexities of the legal market and know that recruiting a lawyer for an in-house position is very different from recruiting a lawyer for a law firm. The needs of an investment bank's legal department vary in many ways from the needs of the legal function of a telecommunications company and the right lawyer for the magic circle will likely be different from the right lawyer for a West End boutique.

We ensure that our consultants are specialists in their fields and we provide a highly consultative service to both employers and the individual lawyers we represent to ensure that not only does the individual have the right technical skills for the role, but also the right attitude and approach for the working environment.

We spend time with our clients developing comprehensive job descriptions to ensure our interview process addresses all the necessary issues to ensure a successful hire. Similarly, we spend time with our candidates to ensure we fully understand their capabilities and career aspirations so that we only submit them for the positions for which they are truly suitable.

We do not believe in persuading people to make inappropriate choices for our short term gain, nor in telling people only what they want to hear. We encourage open and honest dialogue with both clients and candidates and provide carefully considered advice to ensure that the end result is a successful one for all concerned.

We recruit lawyers, contract managers and company secretaries across the following areas:

In-House
Private Practice
Interim Lawyers

Please contact our Legal team for more information about the career enhancing opportunities we are currently managing within this area.

Our clients are corporations on the East Coast and law firms primarily in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware.

Why Do Candidates Call C|N?

Our access to hard-to-find, special opportunities that frequently are not otherwise available
Our knowledge of the marketplace and of the legal communities we serve
Our team of professional recruiter consultants
Our ability to place candidates both in permanent and temporary positions

Because of our extensive knowledge of the legal communities we serve and our direct and ongoing contact with the “right” people, we are better able – as local recruiters – to help our candidates open doors, prepare for interviews, receive and evaluate offers and make wise and informed career decisions. Moreover, we always put our candidates’ interests above our own in advising them whether or not to proceed with a position.

How We Work.

We engage in both recruitment and placement services – in both cases, employers, not candidates, pay our fees. In recruitment, we look for qualified candidates for law firm and in-house positions we have been asked to fill. In placement, we seek out employers for qualified candidates.

Confidentiality. Selecting a recruiter who values confidentiality is critically important at all times, but especially in a close-knit legal community. It is crucial that the decision to leave be announced at the appropriate time, not accidentally discovered by an employer or colleague. Being aware of even the smallest details can help protect a person’s security. Throughout every step of the search process, we are unwaveringly focused on protecting the confidentiality of all parties.

Why Do Law Firms and Corporations Call C|N?

Our team of professional recruiter consultants

Because of our extensive knowledge of the legal communities we serve and our direct, discerning and ongoing contact with quality candidates, we are better able--as local recruiters--to help our clients find the right legal professional for their organization.

We guarantee to listen carefully and understand what is important to our clients. Chassman Associates provides introductions to stellar candidates — the associates, counsel, partners and practice groups our clients wish to attract. We do it by learning what is unique about each and every firm for whom we conduct a search so that we can communicate honestly to potential candidates, sharing stories and specific examples that illustrate the firm’s culture and personality.

Our success comes from understanding that there is more to recruiting than combing through databases for the right credentials. Chassman presents candidates that fit important positions because they have the right résumé and experience and the right blend of the indescribable qualities that will make a successful addition to your organization.

We develop ongoing relationships with the stars in all practice areas; we dig deep to find the right individuals and never waste your time by presenting the wrong ones. And we do it quietly and confidentially.

Our clients know we are much more than a service provider — we are their partner and consultant.

Candidates
Every candidate is unique, with specific goals in undertaking a job search. What don’t we do? We don’t force you down the wrong path simply to fill an assignment. As experts on the legal marketplace, we keep abreast of trends in the legal profession and know what differentiates the cultures of different law firms. By understanding both the dynamics of different firms, and your goals, we are able to make matches that really do stand the test of time.

Candidates trust us to be transparent. Chassman begins each search based on a mutually developed plan: no one is ever presented to a client without his or her express authorization. We are sensitive to the fact that you are generally in a significant position already that cannot be jeopardized, whether you are a partner with fiduciary duties to your other partners or an associate on partnership track who is simply questioning whether they are in the right place.

We do what other good recruiting firms do — help develop your résumé, spend time with you in person, write a glowing cover letter, suggest appropriate opportunities, prep you for interviews, in short provide excellent advice on achieving the optimum presentation.

However we take the process a great deal further. We don’t treat you like a commodity; you matter when you are represented by Chassman Associates. We establish an ongoing relationship with you so you will feel comfortable returning to us for guidance and mentorship throughout your career, as a candidate or if you become the client hiring other attorneys. In either case, we will never compromise your goals to make a commission.

Whether your motivation in seeking a new position is to attain greater level of responsibility; change your geography, professional focus, or firm culture; improve your work/life balance or up your compensation; or the myriad other reasons someone explores the job market; we support your choices and help you achieve your vision.
