Reference checking and giving notice At your request, Garrison will conduct background and reference checks at the appropriate time. Our clients have told us on numerous occasions that our reference check process is far more comprehensive – and informative – than anything else they have seen. When it’s time to give notice, we help the candidate prepare and avoid the most common pitfalls during this often emotionally challenging period. We ensure they know what to say, how to say it, when and how to address counteroffers, and other issues that risk undermining their acceptance of your offer. 2. We know where and how to look We source candidates from our proprietary database of 40,000 lawyers, highlighting those who align with the expertise and skills you require. We supplement our pool with two commercial databases to ensure the most comprehensive coverage. This will include those currently practicing in law firms, corporate legal departments (including trade associations and not-for-profit entities), and the government (if appropriate). Beyond this, we rely on our extensive and trusted referral network of contacts to source and gain access to candidates who might be otherwise under the radar, including candidates who are not actively on the market but open to hearing about unique opportunities. This results in the strongest candidates for your consideration. Our outreach to candidates on your behalf is highly targeted and personal. On a bi-weekly basis, we will give you updates on our efforts, as well as relevant market and candidate feedback. 3. Screening and presentation Our process for selecting who to present is comprehensive, including experience, reasons for considering a move, alignment of compensation expectations, timing of bonuses, and other intangibles. When a candidate passes our initial telephone screening, an in-person or virtual meeting is scheduled with an experienced recruiter in our In-House Division. When we present candidates, you will receive a detailed candidate summary of relevant information. We will then connect with you personally to provide perspectives and answer initial questions. 5. Offer and negotiation support We’re right beside you through the offer and negotiation process to help anticipate and smooth out any issues regarding compensation or other important offer terms. 5.
