Anyone can change the world. Will it be you?

INSPIRING WORDS FROM STEVE JOBS:

“… You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you’ve to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You’ve to trust in something – your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.” – Stanford University commencement address, June 2005.

”That’s been one of my mantras – focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You’ve to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.” – Business Week, 1998.

“Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the leading choices in life. Because almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. – Stanford University commencement address, June 2005.

Legal Placement – Some Do It Well…We Do It Right!!!!

admin — Tue, 09 Aug 2011 23:28:32 +0000

Grimes Legal, Inc. (GLI) presents a unique approach among legal search firms, one which focuses on craftsmanship. We cover all disciplines within legal placement, which gives us the opportunity to work on a wide variety of projects. To us, effective recruiting is truly an art. It is the ability to be creative, to work outside the boxes which constrain others in our industry. We have a devotion to Diversity Placement. We relish the confidence our clients place in us to solve their recruitment needs. We are particularly proud of the fact that when most companies cannot meet their hiring needs through their normal relationships with placement agencies, GLI can. We are focused. We seek to achieve a deep understanding of what both the client and the candidate want, then, through a targeted search, motivate otherwise happy candidates to move to those select locations.

Many clients have been on our books for decades for one reason – WE GET RESULTS!! They have come to us with a need time and time again, and we have filled that need with the best talent available in the market.

LISTEN  EXECUTE  DELIVER

These are the three keys to success in legal placement. At GLI, we listen intently to both the client and the candidate to determine exactly what each is looking for. This background information - the wants, needs, and requirements of the new hire – forms the image of the ideal candidate by which we will conduct our search. If these steps aren’t properly executed, the candidate won’t be an ideal match.

In today’s market, to stay on big, it is imperative that we execute the fundamentals. We at GLI are confident that when others are unable to get the position done, we can.

GLI SPOTLIGHTS CARLOS RIAZ

admin — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 22:22:42 +0000

Carlos Riaz is the Project Coordinator for the New York, NY market. After graduating college with a degree in Human Resource Management, Carlos spent 4 years working in the HR department of a large legal firm in New York. During his tenure in human resources, Carlos found his favorite aspect of the career opportunity was his interaction with the lawyers. His “people skills” and his love for the legal arena were two characteristics that drew Carlos to legal recruiting. His desire to work with a top-notch, well-respected recruiting firm where he would have an opportunity to assist attorneys in reaching their career goals led him to GLI.

Carlos’ human resource background and legal firm experience assist him in coaching attorneys throughout their career opportunity search process. Carlos takes a personal interest in helping each candidate determine what their “perfect law firm job” is and then strive to locate that opportunity. “Every candidate’s “dream job” is different, so it’s imperative that I listen intently to get a full understanding of what he/she is looking for.

Carlos was attracted to GLI because of the firm’s principled and progressive methodology. “I remain impressed by the level of personal attention GLI recruiters gives their candidates. Those attorneys genuinely have representatives working on their behalf in the marketplace; people going the extra mile to locate opportunities that not just met but exceeded their expectations each and every time. THAT’S recruiting at its best”.

Carlos is an eager arts buff, so when he’s not working with candidates, you can usually discover him checking out the newest exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art or the latest opera at the Metropolitan Opera, an interest he shares with Maria, his wife of 7 years. Carlos and Maria also stay very busy with their twin 3-year-old sons, Javier and Miguel.

ClientSpeak - GLI Delivers!

Nancy Grimes and the GLI team are wonderful to work with. My first experience with GLI was for one of our most difficult searches. Nancy took a significant amount of time working with both the partner in charge and the recruiting department to get a thorough understanding of what we were looking for and did a bang-up career opportunity selling the firm to prospective candidates. With her intense enthusiasm and thorough marketing plan, Nancy produced several viable candidates who met all the items on our “wish list”. That was a very rare occurrence. She is truly unmatched in her knowledge of the industry and the Philadelphia legal market and is extremely diligent and responsive. We’ll definitely work with Nancy to fill future openings, especially the difficult ones!
