Biglaw Firm Goes Old School In Latest Recruitment Effort

Sidley Austin is apparently trying to buck the trend when it comes to lateral hiring. While most Biglaw operations are looking towards cutting-edge technology, social media, and recruiting firms to fill their vital lateral needs, Sidley has decided to go old school. We’re talking like pre-internet style… that’s right, they went with a print classified ad.

And here it is in all it’s glory:

The best part is Sidley took the ad out in the New York Post. Not the Times or even the Wall Street Journal, but the Post. Perhaps they have some super secret industry intel that suggests all the best and brightest in capital markets really enjoy punny headlines.
