Candidate Referral Program

Oxford Attorney Search is fortunate to have as clients some of the top-rated and most prestigious firms and corporations in the country. Everyone knows that in most cases the best companies attract the best employees and vice-versa.  We also understand that for a variety of reasons the relationship sometimes just doesn't work out. 

We talk every day to accomplished attorneys who have decided to look for a better fit and we have an idea that you may also know one or two (in addition to yourself) who want to make a change but may be reluctant to "go public" with a job search.  Our goal with this referral program is to facilitate networking - the perennial best tool of the job seeker - to assist good attorneys in their quiet exploration of the job market.

Having come to this page from our job listings, you know that there are plenty of opportunities.  Take a minute to think of any accomplished attorneys who would like to hear more about one of these openings and call or email them as soon as it's convenient.  Tell them to contact us right away (the best positions are filled quickly) and we'll have a confidential, no-pressure  conversation to explore the opportunity and gauge their interest in taking the next step.  Be sure and tell them to mention your name and then you should give us a call to follow up.  Email us if you prefer.

You are familiar with the term "win-win situation". What we are suggesting is a win-win-win-win situation (should your referral accept one of our listed positions) because everyone involved will be rewarded.  Your referral will start a great new job, a firm or company will gain a top-notch employee, a recruiter will get a commission, and you as the primary enabler will receive not only the gratitude of the person you refer, but a very nice dinner for two at a great local restaurant as well, compliments of Oxford Attorney Search.


High-Achiever Roll

Oxford Attorney Search maintains a sizeable database of resumes from attorneys in all job categories and practice environments.  A select few of the best of these resumes are profiled in brief and totally unidentifiable summaries and emailed to our many clients and prospective clients every few weeks.  This High-Achiever Roll, as we call it, is invaluable to the attorney who desires to explore the market or "test the waters" of a job search without the risk of discovery by their current employer.  Once we prepare the profile, we'll send it to you for approval before anyone else sees it.  We are extremely careful to avoid identifying any candidate to an employer without direct prior permission.

Lawyers included on the roll typically have most of the following credentials:
● Honors or at least a top 20% ranking in law school class
● Graduate of one of the premier law schools
● Bar admission in the state (or DC) where they want to work
● Current employment at a prestigious firm, corporation, or public institution
● A significant list of professional accomplishments

To participate in this very effective program, send us your resume either by Email attachment or by filling out the form on our application page.
