2 Our Goal Is To Help You Achieve Your Goals Dear Friends of Wisnik, We wanted to share the findings from the Wisnik Combined Law Firm Recruiting Surveys with you. The attached information is based on surveys sent to members of legal recruiting professional associations in several cities. Surveys were conducted for New York, Chicago, Washington D.C., Los Angeles, Houston/Dallas, and Atlanta in late 2012 and throughout The combined results that follow were generated from 432 responses. Thank you to all of those who participated! Our goal in sharing this information with you is to offer benchmarks for where you, your staff, and your department fall as compared to your peers. We believe that these salary and bonus numbers reflect the current market accurately. By this, I mean that if a firm were to call tomorrow and ask us what they needed to pay a recruiting manager in New York, we would confidently quote them the numbers in this report. We have found that the new jobs we have received since January fall into these ranges. We hope that you find the enclosed information valuable.
