At last, a way
to recruit law students
that actually makes sense
 

Adam Smith, Esq. presents JD Match.
The recruiting service that fills all your available slots with your best available choices

Every law firm has a wish list of students they'd like to hire. Every student has a wish list of firms they'd like to work for.

If only there were a way to bring all the wish lists of all the law firms and all the students together at one time, the entire recruiting process would make a lot more sense. Wouldn't it?

JD Match matches the right firms to the right students

During the recruiting seasons each year for 1Ls, 2Ls and 3Ls, JD Match introduces a more rational process. For the first time, an advanced matching algorithm melds the wish lists of every member law firm with every member law student.

As a result of this melding, the ranked preferences of both firms and students are matched up, so that each firm can then make job offers to those of their preferred candidates who also wish to work at that firm.

JD Match optimizes the preferences of all firms and candidates, giving both their best chance at a strong, lasting relationship.

New kinds of information

The robust JD Match algorithm can generate a wide range of recruiting data that has never before been available.  From this data come JD Reports, which provide entirely new types of reports you can use to track your progress and refine your strategies.  You can know, among other things, how well you fared against your competition--which firms you lost candidates to and which firms you bested.

Over time, as historical data is acquired, JD Reports will grow in scope, sophistication, and ability to spot trends.

Matches, not mismatches

Nobody likes the current system.  In the competition for top candidates, offers and acceptances are forever out of synch. Firms and schools look for an edge.  Offers close sooner.  Anxiety reigns.  Costs mount.

As a result, too many firms hire the wrong candidates.  Too many students go with the wrong firms.  And too many junior associates end up leaving, wasting the substantial investment of firms that never should have hired them in the first place.

Finally, for a fraction of the cost of replacing one departing associate, JD Match will minimize the chances of ending up with those expensive mismatches.
