Legal Career Center offers employers and job seekers access to
national career network
Looking to make a career move or hire a legal professional?
Dec. 12, 2001
The State Bar of Wisconsin recently
launched a Legal
Career Center to assist legal professionals seeking employment
opportunities and employers hiring legal professionals.
The State Bar has partnered with Legalstaff.com, the nation's largest
"legal-only" job and resume site, providing access to a national legal
career network of nearly 3,500 positions - from lawyers to paralegals,
to legal administrators, to support positions. The Legal Career Center
also offers employment-related resources - including sample forms,
contracts, resumes, cover letter rules, and interviewing tips and
techniques.
"One of the greatest challenges to law firms and legal employers
today is finding and hiring outstanding legal talent," said Member
Relations Committee Chair Margaret Ahne Herlitzka. "This new member
benefit will be of great help for legal professionals looking to make a
career move or hire a qualified legal professional. For a limited time,
a free 30-day trial coupon for unlimited job postings is available to
employers."
The service is free for job seekers who can confidentially search for
local and nationwide opportunities or can sign up to receive electronic
notice of new opportunities through its Career Agent. Job seekers also
can post their confidential resume online for potential employers to
review and can choose when to release their resume.
Employers can post jobs, search resumes, automate resume searches via
email, and manage job postings quickly and easily online. The cost to
place one job posting for 30 days is $95; for one month of unlimited
postings $395. Other frequency discounts are available. Legalstaff.com
guarantees employers will receive qualified responses from postings
through the Career Center, or it will run the ad free for an additional
30 days.
For more information, access the new Legal
Career Center or call (800) 659-5589.
