Law Dawgs

I originally submitted my resume to LawDawgs for a position that was beneath my skill level and didn’t hear anything back. About a month later, I got a call from Soheila who said she had a few paralegal positions she wanted to discuss with me. I had a phone interview with Soheila that went great and she suggested submitting me for a position with one of the top large firms in Seattle that I never would have applied for on my own. I had an interview with the HR manger of the firm just a few days later. I didn’t even have to go in and meet in person, she basically hired me right over the phone because they trusted the vetting that LawDawgs had done.
After a month the firm has now made me a permanent employee and I couldn’t be happier. I would not have had this opportunity if it weren’t for LawDawgs and their relationship with this firm.
I will admit their website and payroll system is outdated and needs some work, but last I heard they were in the process of updating it.

Gosh, where to start.
Law Dawgs/​Quid Pro Quo may appear to be human-​centric, magnanimous on the surface, but underneath is an office that fails in nearly every respect as a recruiting agency.
For starters, they purport to be leaders in the legal staffing industry yet they employ recruiters with ZERO legal experience. One of these bubbly young ladies actually had the gall to ask me why I’ve «jumped around so much.» When I referenced her LinkedIn page and asked her for a quid pro quo, she nearly had a stroke because she hasn’t held the same job for more than 7 months for the last 3 years… and she’s asking me why I jump around? Really?
I’ve also had occasion to interview with the former President of the company, who spoke of enthusiasm and optimism in terms of getting me placed at a good firm. Rather, I got one phone call from the President telling me he was submitting me for an exciting opportunity and to await a call back. That call never came, from anyone, ever. And when I called to follow up, I was informed he was no longer with the company.
There was another disturbing occasion at this company when I was on my way to an interview with a law firm I had arranged on my own and asked Law Dawgs if I could stop by the office to print out a copy of my resume; they informed me they weren’t a copy center and that I could have «1» this one time. Nice folks, eh?
These people are disingenuous, self-​important snobs and when I am finally employed, I will not be using their services for anything. I am always the decider in that scenario and they apparently lack the forethought to realize that.
