The idea
Over the last couple of years we have noticed that staff going into the legal market know exactly what they want in the company and position they are applying for - and - the employers who are looking for candidates to fill positions for their firm, know exactly what type of person will qualify and which type of personality would suite the available position. In fact in the legal market, the employers have a much better idea on the type of candidate that would be successful than any employment agency could be - not because the agency doesn't know their market, but because legal staff are rather unique.
So we decided to offer both the job seekers and the employers a place to meet, introduce themselves and then setup an interview to further establish whether they are correct for each other. We do not conduct interviews or screen our candidates; we merely put the parties in touch with each other. Simple and very effective.
What we offer the Job Seeker
A free listing profile with quite a couple of questions, which will attract possible employers to your profile to request further information and it allows you to attach your CV if you so wish. We _strongly_ advise that you remain anonymous until you have seen who is contacting you before revealing your name. Feel free to contact us if you are not sure about the employer. Also please remove your listing if you find a job or if you no longer wish to be part of Jobs4Law.
A donation from you to help us stay in business long enough for you to find a job would be a great help!
What we offer the employer
Also a free listing of your vacancies at your firm. Again we _strongly_ advise that you do not provide your company name, until you are happy with the applicant's profile. If the applicant is successful, Jobs4Law would like to ask that you donate money for the services we offered and which you feel are fair for the value of the placement.
What we offer the Employment Agents
We know that you know this business very well and have great skills in placing candidates. We have a separate subscription where you can list your positions and candidates on the Jobs4Law system. When there is a successful placement from a listing on Jobs4Law we would like to ask for a donation which you think is fair.
Donations
We want to make it easier for people to estimate what amount is fair for a donation, so the donations for successful placements will be listed on our site. Donations from job seekers will remain confidential and we will try to make the listing a little more prominent to help those that help us.
Contracts
Other than our Terms and Conditions when you subscribe, there are no contracts. It is rather simple - if you place a candidate please make a donation and remove the listing from the site.
Why is this better than other job sites?
It is not! We are an online placement company, BUT...... we only do this for the Southern African legal market, AND..... we are not a law firm with a small section doing legal placements, AND...... we don't ask a percentage commission, AND..... we offer a Full 3 month money back guarantee of your staff placements. Now that we say this, maybe we are better than other job sites!
So if you are looking for a job in the legal market, what better place to find a job than a place which is dedicated to the legal market. And if you are a law firm looking for staff/partners, why not place your advert in a place which is dedicated to your legal market and offers a placement fee that is always affordable from your side.
