How Our Permanent Legal Recruitment Process Works
Tell us who you need to recruit. We help law firms and in-house teams move from a clear vacancy brief to candidate introductions, interviews and an agreed appointment.
1. Register the vacancy
Tell us the job title, location, practice area, salary range, working arrangements, required experience and preferred start date. A precise brief helps us identify lawyers whose experience and expectations match the role.
2. We review the brief
A legal recruitment consultant will review the vacancy and may contact you to clarify the essential requirements. We can discuss the proposed salary, candidate availability and whether the role is likely to attract applicants in the current market.
3. Candidate search and initial screening
We search our registered candidate database and may advertise the vacancy through appropriate legal job channels. Suitable candidates can be screened against the agreed requirements before their details are submitted. You can provide your preferred screening questions or ask us to conduct a general initial screening interview.
4. CVs and interviews
We send suitable candidate details to the employer with the candidate’s permission and assist with interview arrangements and communication. The employer decides whom to interview and appoint. Agree with us which checks we undertake and which remain with you, including identity, qualifications, references and right to work.
5. Offer and acceptance
We can communicate offers, proposed start dates and other agreed terms. The employment contract is issued directly by the employer. Introduction fees, payment dates and any instalment or rebate arrangements are governed by the applicable agreed terms.

FAQ
The Ten Percent Group (www.tenpercentgroup.com) is a group of companies and websites all with a common purpose; we donate 10% of net profits to charity on an annual basis. Our first company was established in May 2000 and we have been donating 10% of net profits ever since. Since 2003 this has been done via the Ten Percent Foundation, a charitable trust set up to manage our donations. In 2025 one of our group companies, TP Transcription Limited, joined 1% For the Planet, which means that we donate from this company in a slightly different way – 1% of turnover is donated to approved charities through this scheme and the balance is donated via the Ten Percent Foundation.
Companies and websites include Ten Percent Legal Recruitment, Interim Lawyers, Jonathan Fagan Business Brokers, TP Transcription Limited, University Transcriptions and TP Translations.
