About Docketly
Docketly, a sister company to ABC Legal Services, is redefining legal support services. We make it easy, fast, and reliable for creditors'-rights attorneys to connect with court-hearing opportunities, pairing proprietary software with a nationwide attorney network. Based in Longmont, Colorado, we move fast and value people who do the same.
About the Role
We're hiring a Senior Full-Cycle Recruiter to own attorney recruiting from first contact to signed offer. This is not a coordinator role — you will build your own pipeline, source your own candidates, get on the phone, and close. You'll run a full desk: sourcing, screening, pitching, negotiating, and closing attorneys, with a monthly target of 15–20 hires. If you've run a recruiting desk before and know what it takes to hit a number every month, this role is built for you.
What You'll Do
Own full-cycle recruiting. Manage every stage of the hiring process for attorney roles — intake, sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer negotiation, and close — with minimal handholding.
Source your own candidates. Build and work your own pipeline using LinkedIn Recruiter, bar association directories, referrals, and other channels. You are not waiting on inbound applicants.
Cold-call and pitch. Reach out directly to passive and active attorney candidates, pitch the opportunity, handle objections, and move qualified candidates through the process quickly.
Build your book of business. Develop and maintain a growing network of attorney relationships and referral sources you can call on for current and future openings.
Hit your number. Deliver 15–20 attorney hires per month against a clear quota, with visibility into your pipeline health and conversion at every stage.
Partner with hiring stakeholders. Work closely with practice leaders and operations to understand role requirements, market conditions, and shifting priorities.
Keep clean records. Log activity, candidate status, and outcomes accurately in the ATS/CRM so your pipeline and results are always current.
What We're Looking For
Required
5+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including sourcing your own candidates rather than relying on inbound flow.
Proven experience recruiting attorneys or other licensed/credentialed professionals.
Comfortable with high-volume outbound calling and cold outreach; not deterred by hearing “no.”
A track record of building and running your own candidate pipeline / book of business.
Strong negotiation and closing skills — you can handle objections and get candidates to commit.
Demonstrated ability to consistently hit a monthly hiring quota (15–20+ hires/month or comparable volume).
Skilled with an ATS/CRM and sourcing tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, etc.).
Highly organized and self-directed; able to run a full desk without close supervision.
Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience.
Preferred (nice to have, not required)
Prior experience recruiting specifically for attorney or legal roles at scale.
Background in agency recruiting or RPO (Recruitment Process Outsourcing) where you owned a desk end-to-end.
Familiarity with legal industry credentialing, bar admission requirements, or practice-area nuances.
Experience recruiting in a high-volume, metrics-driven environment.
You'll Thrive Here If You've Worked In...
Agency recruiting, legal recruiting, executive search, high-volume corporate recruiting, or any desk-owning role where you sourced, pitched, negotiated, and closed candidates against a hard number.
