PABar Placement Center
Bringing Legal Professionals and Employers Together
As the largest lawyers' association in Pennsylvania, it is the PBA's responsibility to deliver services that benefit every type of member (law student, associate, partner) and every size firm that our members work for (solos, small, medium, large). When it comes to career advancement and recruitment, the PBA's new PABar Placement Center levels the playing field for both candidates and employers.

Legal Professionals
If you're looking to land your first job, make a lateral move or pursue partnership or in-house opportunities, our placement counselors can assist you. We understand that education, experience and career advancement are all tied closely together. We also understand that when a legal professional chooses to make a career move, several important factors are essential to consider:

• Having a specific career plan is vital to a successful career move;
• Keeping your search confidential is vital to job security;
• Who you know and how to reach the decision-maker can make all the difference;
• A successful move can be accelerated by working with a knowledgeable placement counselor.

The PABar Placement Center is designed specifically to help the job seeker accomplish all the above. When you register with us, we start by connecting you with one of our placement counselors. Whether you are making a lateral move across the city, across the state or across the nation, our counselors are there to help you create and follow your desired career strategy; to market your skills and abilities confidentially to the employers who match your career plan; and to help you make the right move. There is never a charge to the candidate for our placement assistance (all fees are paid by the employer) and our counselors are there to offer advice and consultation on your career and professional interests.

Employers
