    Hi,

    I just graduated from a Law degree(still awaiting results) and am looking for some work, anything in admin(I have admin/secretarial experience) anywhere, legal or non legal and am wondering if anyone could tell me the best recruitment agency I could look for help from?

    Iv tried companies directly, I have applied for jobs online and nothing, not even a reply from most so I am thinking a recruitment agency might be my best bet next? Or if anyone has any other helpful advice, I would be grateful! thanks

    Congratulations on your law degree! BIG achievement -well done!!!!

    Re using Recruitmant Companies -Sure why not.

    But if you want to stay sane, don't rely on them, or believe a word out of their mouths.

    In the UK there are specialist law RC -is it the same here? Might give you an " in" into breaking into your field . And as its a bigger market less likely to be full of the lies & bs you get from them here.

    Have you considered law networking groups or volunteering ( free legal advise etc) in your area -may help you meet people who could help or give you an edge on your CV that other entrants don't have yet .

    Best of luck with it.

    Companies pay recruiters a fee for their help. In a market where law grads are not exactly difficult to find companies tend to hire their own law grads. There are exceptions but the direct approach is your best option.
