Senior Full-Cycle Recruiter — Attorneys
About the role
About Docketly
Docketly, a sister company to ABC Legal Services, is redefining legal support services. We make it easy, fast, and reliable for creditors'-rights attorneys to connect with court-hearing opportunities, pairing proprietary software with a nationwide attorney network. Based in Longmont, Colorado, we move fast and value people who do the same.
About the Role
We're hiring a Senior Full-Cycle Recruiter to own attorney recruiting from first contact to signed offer. This is not a coordinator role — you will build your own pipeline, source your own candidates, get on the phone, and close. You'll run a full desk: sourcing, screening, pitching, negotiating, and closing attorneys, with a monthly target of 15–20 hires. If you've run a recruiting desk before and know what it takes to hit a number every month, this role is built for you.
What You'll Do
- Own full-cycle recruiting. Manage every stage of the hiring process for attorney roles — intake, sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer negotiation, and close — with minimal handholding.
- Source your own candidates. Build and work your own pipeline using LinkedIn Recruiter, bar association directories, referrals, and other channels. You are not waiting on inbound applicants.
- Cold-call and pitch. Reach out directly to passive and active attorney candidates, pitch the opportunity, handle objections, and move qualified candidates through the process quickly.
- Build your book of business. Develop and maintain a growing network of attorney relationships and referral sources you can call on for current and future openings.
- Hit your number. Deliver 15–20 attorney hires per month against a clear quota, with visibility into your pipeline health and conversion at every stage.
- Partner with hiring stakeholders. Work closely with practice leaders and operations to understand role requirements, market conditions, and shifting priorities.
- Keep clean records. Log activity, candidate status, and outcomes accurately in the ATS/CRM so your pipeline and results are always current.
What We're Looking For
Required
- 5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including sourcing your own candidates rather than relying on inbound flow.
- Proven experience recruiting attorneys or other licensed/credentialed professionals.
- Comfortable with high-volume outbound calling and cold outreach; not deterred by hearing “no.”
- A track record of building and running your own candidate pipeline / book of business.
- Strong negotiation and closing skills — you can handle objections and get candidates to commit.
- Demonstrated ability to consistently hit a monthly hiring quota (15–20+ hires/month or comparable volume).
- Skilled with an ATS/CRM and sourcing tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, etc.).
- Highly organized and self-directed; able to run a full desk without close supervision.
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience.
Preferred (nice to have, not required)
- Prior experience recruiting specifically for attorney or legal roles at scale.
- Background in agency recruiting or RPO (Recruitment Process Outsourcing) where you owned a desk end-to-end.
- Familiarity with legal industry credentialing, bar admission requirements, or practice-area nuances.
- Experience recruiting in a high-volume, metrics-driven environment.
