I am sooooo mad!!! I had seen a job I really wanted and reached out to the recruiter who posted it. I went through interviews and references and was told I should get an offer yesterday. When I didn’t hear anything I reached out to the recruiter who told me the firm didn’t agree to the recruiter 40% feet so even though they want to hire you they can’t because it would breach the recruiter contract. Has this ever happened to anyone? I will never work with this recruiter company again

I am so sorry that happened OP. I have been hearing this more and more about recruiters and it really is a shame. I don't blame you one bit for being upset. I have had that happen before and it really is the worst. Definitely keep applying and looking for something else.

I currently work at a small PI firm in Atlanta were EVERYTHING is settled presuit. If we’re unable to settle, then it’s referred to another firm for litigation. This whole process seems very atypical to me and the attorneys rarely touch a file until the first liability offer is received. The paralegals handle everything from intake to drafting the demands. The attorney briefly skims (does NOT read) the demand packages and signs. Is this ethical?? Anyone else work at a firm that is run this way??
