How Law Firms Hire Great Employees with Dominic Grew

In this episode, Alay and Dominic discuss:  Job hiring through LinkedIn.  Building your dream team. Leveraging your network and your current employees. Standing out from the competition to grab the attention of your candidates.  What to do from interview to onboarding. Key Takeaways:  Make sure you’re on LinkedIn and post – it’s free! If you can add a visual, people are more likely to look at it. If you can do a video, that’s even better! The best hires tend to have a connection to your firm in some fashion.  Relationships are built over time. When things change, and they often change quickly, you want to already have people in mind.  Leverage other members of your team during the hiring process. You, as the attorney, do not need to do everything from start to finish.  Tweetable Moments:  “Talk with people. Have a sense of what is going on in the marketplace. Understand what your competitors are doing.” —  Dominic Grew “Always be on the lookout for talent – who do you already know that you’d like to have on your team?” —  Alay Yajnik “It’s to grab their attention where they see an ad think, ‘That’s interesting,’ and then take action.” —  Dominic Grew “Because these are technical positions, a test (when done legally and in the right way) can be incredibly useful.” —  Alay Yajnik “You’ve got to be as methodical with the onboarding as you were with the recruitment process because it is extremely frustrating when someone is hired and it unravels after.” —  Dominic Grew    About Dominic Grew: Dominic “Dom” Grew is an expert in business management and business development.
