      The market leader for legal recruitment

      Pros

      This is not like an ordinary recruitment company. There are no KPIs. The sales floor is quieter than I was used to. You are surrounded by high quality people at the top of their game. Everyone lives and breathes legal (and compliance). Management and direction is there if you need it, but people are treated like adults and are expected to own and run their own desks. It is genuinely global and there are opportunities to move overseas. Everyone, including partners, are at the coal face billing.

      Cons

      It is sink or swim - good people will fly but there is no real infratructure in place to help poor performers. It is a place for people who are already well skilled and back themselves.

      Market-leader in legal, recruiting the right way

      Recruitment consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      The brand is global, long-established and premium. It opens doors and installs confidence in clients and candidates. The people are professional, hard working and high achieving. It feels more like a professional services firm than a recruitment agency. Everyone is externally competitive, but internally collaborative, supportive and friendly. That’s easy to say, but hard to achieve. Uniquely in my experience of legal recruitment, they are as strong with law firms as they are with in-house legal search. It surprises me how few legal recruitment firms grasp the importance of excelling in both.

      Cons

      Performance management. I have rarely seen an underperforming fee earner turn their career around at TR. If you have not been successful at your current firm, there is no magic L&D wand at TR. The best performers typically arrive with existing strong recruitment skills / experience and take themselves to the next level by virtue of the quality of the platform and being surrounded by exceptional talent. That said, there are some high performers who joined as graduates: juniors who work hard and apply themselves can succeed.
