Hi 🐠 Is it possible to refer someone for a Partner role at a partnership based firm, if they’re “almost there” but not already one?

Good to know, thanks

Yes, it happens. You’d need to talk to your current partners first

Yep, thanks

Then why would I waste my time on bs with you 😂

I’d say it depends on the firm, but generally, if they’re close and have the right qualifications, it could be worth mentioning. Some firms might value potential and ambition, especially if the person has a strong track record. Have you tried discussing it with them?

Haha I always expect a mixed bag of responses on anon forums

It is just a referral for others to consider. Make the referral and see what happens. Direct admit partnership is risky so they probably won't be brought in at equity partner level, but others can have that conversation and decide.

Makes sense, some times it just helps to hear from others what I’m thinking. Thanks!
