Simplifying Recruitment Processes and Filling Critical Roles

Case Study: Reducing the Number of Recruiting Vendors

Industry: Legal / Project Management


A Michigan-based international law firm faced an overwhelming challenge: managing too many open positions while juggling a large volume of candidate submissions from multiple recruiting vendors. This created unnecessary clerical work and slowed their hiring process. The firm needed a structured approach to streamline recruitment and ensure high-quality hires for critical roles.

We partnered with the client to develop a targeted recruitment strategy. Together, we determined which positions our team would handle and which ones were better suited for internal efforts. Powerwell focused on filling high-priority roles, such as Legal Project Manager, Paralegal, and other professional staff positions. This approach streamlined the hiring process, reduced redundancy, and improved efficiency.

  • Faster Hiring Process: The Legal Project Manager role was filled within just three weeks, cutting the hiring timeline by 50%.

  • Reduced Recruitment Vendors: The client consolidated their recruiting vendors, leading to less clerical work, a more structured process, and a higher-quality talent pool.

  • Improved Pipelines: Powerwell built a robust pipeline of candidates for critical roles, including Trademark, Patent, and Litigation Paralegals, ensuring future hiring needs could be met swiftly.

Powerwell’s consultative approach and targeted strategy helped the client fill multiple hard-to-fill roles quickly and efficiently. By restructuring their recruitment process and reducing vendor reliance, the firm achieved faster time-to-hire and reduced internal workloads, paving the way for long-term success.

Powerwell continues to deliver tailored solutions that simplify recruitment challenges and drive measurable results.
