"Thanks to all the help and assistance I have received from Joanna Marklove at BCL Legal I have found a position that I believe will suit me and allow me to establish a decent career for myself. This was achieved by way of a carefully considered approach in finding the right law firm and role for me. This did not compare with other recruitment consultants I have dealt with who have not taken the time to assess whether the position is what I'm looking for. Joanna kept me updated at regular intervals and always responded to my queries promptly".
top"I would like to thank Matthew Porter for his part in finding me my new position. He clearly has his finger on the pulse of the Manchester market and was consistently ahead of the competition in rooting out opportunities. Just as impressive was the way in which Matthew took a genuinely personal interest, even ringing to find out how interviews had gone when he was away on holiday. Given Matthew's ability to gain an early understanding of the vacancies to which I was suited and to provide helpful advice throughout the process, I would not hesitate to recommend him".
top"I have always found Joanna Marklove to be helpful and personable. She has an extensive knowledge of the market and takes great care in placing candidates in the right role/firm. Joanna is patient and supportive and in addition to being very good at her job, is an extremely nice person to deal with. Joanna assisted me in finding precisely the role I was looking for, at Weightmans".
top"I instructed BCL Legal to help me in my search for new employment within insurance litigation and they successfully placed me in my current role with Keoghs. I was particularly impressed with the way they handled my application. The consultants were always available to speak to me out of hours, they were very professional, they seemed to have an excellent grasp of the insurance market place particularly in the North West and it made quite a stressful experience a pleasant one. I would not hesitate in recommending them to prospective candidates as well as law firms looking to recruit; they are the market leaders in this field".
top“Having decided to move from being a claimant solicitor to being a defendant insurance solicitor, I knew that I would need some professional guidance in terms of where and how to place myself within the market. I obtained details of BCL legal via the Internet and was introduced to David Carr immediately. I was impressed with the professionalism and presentation of the business and this reassured me with opting to go with them. I always received responses to my calls and emails and discretion was maintained throughout. I would recommend speaking to BCL legal if you are interested in seeking pastures new as they were very helpful in introducing me to defendant insurance even during these difficult times.”
top"Once we had decided that it was right for the team to move, it was vital that we got the best information possible on the legal marketplace in Manchester and the North West generally. I regarded BCL Legal as the market leader and the service that they provided matched that reputation. Their professionalism was exemplary. Matthew Porter and Vicky Clark put us in front of everyone we wanted to see. They had a clear understanding of what we were seeking to acheive and with their help we have secured an ideal match for ourselves and our clients. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to other candidates or firms".
top"A friend recommended I instruct BCL Legal and within days of registering I was interviewing with law firms in Manchester. They knew partners in all the employment law departments and quickly identified the types of firms for me. They also kept in touch with me after I started at Linder Myers to make sure I was happy. They found me the job I wanted and I would recommend BCL Legal to any solicitor looking for a new opportunity."
topAfter graduating from university I struggled to find a job in the legal profession. I had been warned off agencies and consequently avoided them. However, with the recession in full force and more law students than ever I found that competition was strong and job opportunities scarce, so I decided to try applying for jobs through agencies. I looked online and was shocked by how many agencies were out there. I sent my CV to several agencies. Out of all of the agencies, I found BCL Legal and in particular Joanna Marklove, to be the best. Joanna's friendly, down-to-earth and professional manner meant that I was able to be myself and openly discuss my aims. Within weeks I was lined up with interviews. Without Joanna and BCL I truly believe I would not have got my dream job at Irwin Mitchell. I would have no hesitations in recommending Joanna or BCL Legal and would certainly use them again in the future.
topThroughout my experience of dealing with BCL Legal, namely Joanna Marklove, I have found the service offered to be nothing but professional, helpful and friendly. I have had plenty of experience dealing with job agencies, much of which I am afraid to say has been negative, so it was very refreshing to receive the service I did from BCL Legal. Joanna kept me informed throughout her dealings with me and I felt 100% confident that what she promised me she would do would get done - and it certainly was. I have been incredibly impressed by the standards of BCL Legal and would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a job within the legal field. I had lost absolute confidence that an efficient job agency existed; however, I am pleased I have found one that has far exceeded my expectations. I would like to thank Joanna for all her help in her quest to secure me a job. Whilst I hope not to be looking for a job too soon, I will certainly be approaching BCL Legal should I want a job in the future.
top"Having used a couple of agencies before discovering BCL Legal and in particular, Matthew Porter, I was extremely impressed with their professionalism and high level of competence. Matthew had an excellent style of communication, was always immediately accessible and showed great persistence in pursuing various opportunities. I would happily recommend BCL Legal and Matthew".
