Pinpointing Culture Fit Through Due Diligence
Challenge
A law firm partner had vague role requirements but was highly particular about personality fit, making the search challenging. The managing partner was not initially clear about the type of culture fit the firm needed, and ongoing internal changes added to the uncertainty.
Solution
We conducted in-depth research, listened carefully, and read between the lines to identify the true traits and work style the partner valued. To guide the process, we presented a broad slate of three professionals with different personality strengths, which helped the firm refine its criteria and clarify the fit they were seeking.
Result
The firm hired a legal assistant who aligned seamlessly with the partner’s expectations, improving workflow and reducing turnover risk.
