Legal Executive Search

We establish a needs analysis through interviews with our client. This is to get a clear picture of both the position to be filled and the business. We then formulate a requirement profile regarding experience and personal qualities. The requirement profile is approved by the client.

Based on the requirement profile, we design a customized search according to the client's specific needs and conditions. We naturally use digital channels and other sources to identify candidates. Selin Legal also has a large network of lawyers. We typically create a long-list of potential candidates that the client approves before we contact relevant individuals.

The selection takes place in several steps. First, we conduct phone interviews with the candidates, and those candidates whose experience and competence best match the developed requirement profile are presented to the client (short-list). We then conduct structured interviews with a number of selected candidates. In some cases, we also add personality tests in accordance with the client's wishes.

After the selection process, we present a number of particularly suitable candidates. We then schedule interviews between the client and each candidate, where we from Selin Legal are also present at the meeting to support the client. We then schedule meetings with the candidate(s) the client prefers to proceed with. Here too, we from Selin Legal participate.

For the final candidate, we take references to verify our joint assessment of the current candidate.

Our client offers the candidate an agreement and concludes it. We are naturally helpful all the way until everything is settled.
