Career Advice

As you might imagine, with a team of consultants working entirely in the legal market over a ten year period, with a range of law firms and businesses of all sizes and with candidates who are newly qualified through to equity partners, we have amassed enviable intelligence of the legal market.

In working on a headhunting assignment we draw heavily on this wealth of experience to ensure that only those candidates we feel meet our client’s brief are put forward for interview. This means that if you are a Shaw Chapman headhunted candidate, through the thoroughness of our process you will enjoy the benefits of our market experience and career advice. We have many letters of appreciation from such candidates.

But, what if you are not a Shaw Chapman headhunted candidate but are in need of impartial career advice? For example

you may feel you have reached a cross roads and considering a career change
you may be debating moving firm but are uncertain of what steps to take because of concerns over confidentiality – it is a small world after all
you may have had an offer but are unsure whether to accept
you may be an equity partner whose existing firm is restricting the growth of your practice and professional reputation, or that your reward is not commensurate with
your skills and level of fee earning
you may be uncertain over preparing your CV, or
you may be concerned over how best to present yourself at interview.

These and many more are situations we encounter at first hand every day in the course of our work. So, if you feel you might benefit from a confidential discussion, totally without obligation, then please do call Shaw Chapman.
