Mid-size firm in Utah looking for associates who speak Spanish with some litigation experience -- family law, criminal defense, civil lit and/or probate. Base salary and bonuses-- if you meet the minimum hours billed you would be making $120k+. We have good benefits, plenty of work to go around (thus the hiring), good mentors and upward mobility.

We're not getting the right applicants from our ads on Indeed and LinkedIn-- what should we be highlighting about the opportunity? Any tips?

What’s wrong with the candidates that you’re drawing? I think looking at that will let you know what you actually need to revise.

My impression is that calling yourself a “mid-size” firm, while possible accurate looking at attorney headcount, suggests a more big law adjacent practice. Big law doesn’t typically handle traditional family law or criminal defense. So that might be why you’re not getting the hits your expecting?
