Significant Issues

One of the recruiters is unprofessional, malicious and incompetent and possibly racist S Fagan. Since a facetime call in April 2026, where she would have discovered I'm Black, she has not helped me but just made up lies and has become an enemy of progress. She refused to even look at my CV to check important details including addressing me by my preferred name! What a horrible person. Do not waste your time with Career legal.

If you are really serious about looking for a job, please don’t waste your time. I have exchanged few emails with one of the recruiter then she have set up a call with me. The day of the call I was seating next to my phone, unfortunately no one has call me. In about 25 minutes later on, I have received an email from her, telling that she been trying to call me but no response. I have emailed back and told her that surprise I have not received any missed calls today, at all. Then she never responded back to me.

I had an outstanding experience working with Career Legal, and, in particular, with Tom Revell. Tom was fantastic to work with and helped me secure an attorney role. He was transparent, extremely responsive, and very supportive from start to finish. He has been one of the most professional and genuine recruiters I have had the pleasure of working with. From initial contact to offer, the entire process was completed in just three short weeks with open communication throughout. I truly appreciate Tom and would highly recommend him and Career Legal to anyone navigating their next career move.

They never respond and I feel like I’ve been ignored. It would be nice if they don’t neglect candidates they’ve registered.

I have been working with the Career Legal, Agency since August of 2025 ,my first telephone screening was with Sarah the talent recruiter it was very pleasant. Our communication was clear ,they understand my needs and the type of work that I am interested in doing. The Agency staff members are professionals and respectful and offers useful advice and support .

My experience with Career Legal since 2018 has been seamless, thanks in large part to Sarah’s professionalism and commitment. She has consistently demonstrated attentiveness, reliability, and a genuine understanding of her clients’ needs. Sarah’s easy-going nature also makes her a pleasure to work with, creating a smooth and personable experience every time. I have recommended her to others over the years, and they’ve all shared the same positive experience. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a recruiter who delivers exceptional support.

career legal needs to do a better job at finding full time roles for their candidates especially ones who have been with the company for a while. I haven’t been able to receive even a week worth of shifts. I’m not sure how they work but surely it should be first come first served. It just feels unfair as there’s people who have been given way more then some. This needs to be sorted out.
