Which firms are the best legal recruiting firms to use in Philadelphia? Im a corporate/banking/privacy attorney in Philadelphia, and I am looking to make a switch to a new job. I’ve been searching and using two recruiters for months to no avail, and could use some extra help. Thanks I’m advance.

You need to get a list from each of them as to where you've been submitted.

Then you need to apply directly anywhere else.

Is it possible your resume is too broad/not targeted enough?
