Briefing report: The new recruiting

This report features the Legal Support Network recruitment survey and was sponsored by Codex Edge, part of Cogence Search.

Our recruitment survey focussed on the extent to which direct sourcing was taking hold in large law firms. We questioned whether firms had a formal strategy, how they were resourcing themselves and what levels of success they were having in sourcing candidates directly.
