Summary

In the face of evolving candidate attitudes to broader market trends, boutique firms increasingly have to look beyond traditional recruitment approaches in order to get ahead. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Lazarus Legal director Mark Lazarus about the many hats he's worn as a lawyer and how it informs his sense of service as a practitioner, the myriad challenges facing firm leaders looking to hire right now, and why certain trends have emerged, the need to look broader afield, including with outsourcing, understanding reasons for turnover, consideration of incentives, how to think about AI in the context of future recruitment, and his guidance to fellow firm owners about how to approach talent attraction moving forward.
