Stacy worked with me for about 2 months to find the job placement that was the
right for me. Stacy is just phenomenal at what she does, and her passion shines
through in all aspects of the process. She does thorough research, provides you
with options and is very open about the various opportunities and tries to align
them with your own personal goals. Throughout the entire recruitment process I
felt supported and was able to share any concerns I may or may not have had so
that in the end I felt comfortable with the decision I made to start working
with a new employer.

A. McAdam, Associate Lawyer

 

Stacy Cowan at Urban Legal Recruitment is wonderful. She is very knowledgeable
about the firms she works with and helped me find a position that best suited my
needs that is a great fit. Stacy was always available to answer questions and
very responsive. I would highly recommend Urban Legal Recruitment!

L. Coles, Associate Lawyer

 

Absolutely 5 Star Status for Ms. Shona Tischner at Urban Legal Recruitment. I
have been in the Legal World for almost a decade and I have never used a
recruiter until recently. Shona was quick to respond when I needed help, and she
had me lined up for an interview immediately. I am forever grateful for her
services I landed my DREAM JOB! Thank you, Shona! I highly recommend Urban Legal
of you're looking for help!!

Stacy is absolutely amazing at what she does! I have worked with a number of
legal recruiters in the pastand none of them come close to Stacy's caliber of
recruitment ingenuity and prowess. I highly recommend Stacy for all of your
legal recruitment needs, whether you are a candidate looking for

opportunities or a firm seeking to hire. Her knowledge of the legal market is
accurate and up to date. You can tell she does a lot of research and is very
well-informed of all things related to the legal recruitment process, including
forecasting trends and likely scenarios.

After working with Stacy on my latest posting, it will be hard to work with any
other recruiter. Highly recommended!

M. Javdan, Associate Lawyer

 

Shona has been an absolute joy to work with. I have been with Urban Recruitment
for more that 20 years. They found me my first legal word processing job and
those since. They work very hard to ensure you are placed in a position that
reflects your experience and qualifications. I more than highly recommend them.

Stacy was so incredible to work with! Finding a lateral position as a junior
lawyer is daunting but Stacy went above and beyond to make me feel confident to
go through the process. Stacy was involved right from the start. She reviewed my
CV and assisted me with key updates. She was always available if I had to talk
through my nerves before an interview. She also promptly followed up with
important feedback. Stacy was kind, personable and professional and I am so
happy I worked with her in finding the role that was right for me. Thank you,
Stacy!

P.Naidu, Associate Lawyer

 

Where do I even begin? Shona has been an absolutely joy to work with. She has a
gift of knowing what the right fit would be for not just the potential employee
but also the employer. She has always been there to reassure me when things
don’t work out and to encourage me when I’m not feeling the most confident. She
is a literal angel and I am so happy to have worked with her. Thank you again,
Shona… for all your efforts, encouragement and time. You are THE best.

Stacy is a rare gem, she is kind, patient and considerate. She helped me move
back to Canada after taking some time at home in Ireland following a bereavement
in my family. She worked with me to find the right firm, and knows the legal
market very well. She is never pushy, and as a candidate, this is very
important. Stacy took the time to get to know me, and kindly guided me in the
direction of my new role. 

She supported me through all stages of the interview and offer process. Thank
you Stacy for everything you do, you are a trusted advisor!

T. Nolan, Associate Lawyer

 

I applied for a full time Family Paralegal position and Shona had promptly
contacted me after to discuss the position, prospective employer, employer
expectations, firm and culture. Further, my experience, expectations, and
desires as to where I would like to proceed in my career.

Shona was polite, professional, personable and warm. I had an interview, second
meeting with my lawyer and accepted a wonderful offer shortly after.

Shona had both the firms and my best interests at heart for complete alignment
and good fit. I am so very pleased and grateful as the process was only a week
to successful results. Thank you Shona, you played pivotal role in assisting me
in fulfilling my dream job.

Strongly recommend.
