ZSA finds solutions to challenging hiring situations.
Personal Injury Lawyer

I reached out to Orit through a ZSA Linkedin posting resulting in being placed as a personal injury lawyer. I had not dealt with a recruiter before and my experience was excellent. Orit was very kind, enthusiastic, responsive, and helpful in securing me an interview as well as communication thereafter and execution of the employment… agreement. I would certainly work with her again. Read more “Personal Injury Lawyer”
Associate Counsel

I was placed as an Associate Counsel and engaged ZSA after seeing a posting of interest and contacted Mike. My experience was excellent as Mike took the initiative to put together lists of firms for me, and then would reach out to the ones that I approved. This saved me a ton of time which… was extremely valuable. Read more “Associate Counsel”
Junior Lawyer

I reached out to ZSA as they appeared to be a credible company with solid contacts in the industry and really didn’t take any steps on my own due to time constraints. I was placed as a Junior Lawyer and my experience dealing with Orit was excellent. She provided exceptional insights about possible employment opportunities… which were suitable for me as a candidate. She was also helpful providing guidance and support during the interviewing process. It was particularly valuable to me that she identified the appropriate roles which I was able to entrust her and her team which freed up considerable time on my end. My overall experience was great and I am extremely happy with the results. Read more “Junior Lawyer”
Junior Associate

I was placed as a Junior Associate and dealt with Orit. I wanted to find a junior associate position and saw a posting by ZSA on the weekly Ontario Court Report. I thought it was a good idea to engage with a recruiter and, prior to ZSA, I was applying for jobs through postings on… the Ontario Court Reports, Indeed, and Glassdoor. Orit was excellent. She was always quick to respond and she placed a lot of effort in getting me interviews quickly. It was particularly valuable to me that she found positions that were suitable for me and she provided me with advice on how to improve on my job application. I couldn’t have been any happier with her service. Read more “Junior Associate”
Office Coordinator

I was placed as an Office Coordinator and dealt with Kareyn. I applied online looking for a job and they reached out to me. My experience with Kareyn was excellent. She was very warm and welcoming; she was extremely understanding; and, she made sure to answer all my questions. She was also very kind, helpful,… and responded very quickly. This was a great experience and what I found particularly helpful was her kind messages wishing me luck, checking in to make sure that I received all the information and the interview reminders. ZSA was very responsive and wanted to make sure I had a very positive experience. Read more “Office Coordinator”
Legal Counsel

I was placed in a Legal Counsel role although I engaged ZSA for another role. I had a good conversation with Orit about my candidacy for that role and, although I was not eligible for that role, our conversation was good as Orit asked me what I was looking for in a role and asked… really good questions about where I saw my legal career going. Orit kept her promise to reach out when there was a role she saw fitting my wants and reached out for the opportunity to be put forward for the current role. Prior to reaching out to ZSA, I was just being approached by other recruiters and applying on LinkedIn for other legal counsel roles. My experience was excellent and Orit was amazing. She knew what I was looking for in a role; she knew what the company wanted; and, she paired us well. What I found particularly helpful was that Orit was good in helping me negotiate after I received an offer. Read more “Legal Counsel”
Associate Counsel

I was placed as an Associate Counsel and dealt with Orit. I engaged ZSA for assistance in securing a junior real estate or corporate position. Before contacting ZSA, I had been networking with lawyers and recruiters. I had a good experience with Orit and appreciated her awareness of the job posting and updates on my… candidacy during the interview process. I also appreciated her availability to connect and willingness to answer any questions I had. Read more “Associate Counsel”
Associate

I was placed as an Associate and dealt with Travis. I had been passively reviewing Job postings in the Ontario reports and reviewing opportunities raised for me by other recruiters. Travis contacted me on LinkedIn, and my experience with him was excellent. I worked with him for over a year, and he was very understanding… and supportive when I was not interested in firms/opportunities he raised and/or turned down viable offers that I was not comfortable with. He was also consistent about reaching out periodically to see if I was still in the market and encouraged me to hear out all opportunities when I was weighing multiple opportunities. This ultimately landed me a better role that I could have initially expected, or imagined. Travis brought great value in his patience and understanding regarding qualities in a new role/firm I was looking for aside from compensation. I have spoke with 5 recruiters including Travis over the last year or so. Travis was my favourite because I felt heard by him and he took the time to speak to me and check in with me before and after interviews. Travis validated my experience and hopes for a new firm where others discounted my ability and credentials to move to the type of firm that interested me. Read more “Associate”
Associate

ZSA engaged me, and I dealt with Orit, resulting in being placed as an Associate. My experience with her was excellent, and she was a pleasure to work with. I found her insight and knowledge very valuable and helpful throughout the process.
Senior Law Clerk

I was placed as a Senior Law Clerk and dealt with Kareyn. I saw positions ZSA had for a job on LinkedIn, even though I had applied for numerous positions on LinkedIn with no response. My experience was excellent as Kareyn provided immediate contact and was very professional and courteous. ZSA gave me the impression… they were serious about helping me find employment and Kareyn was truly interested in helping me find a job. She was very committed in helping me throughout the process and was constantly in contact with positions I applied for. I have used other recruiters in the past and was not very impressed with how they treated me – it’s as if they have you in mind for one job only and no longer continue to help if that one job does not come through. Kareyn was excellent and gave me the confidence that I was dealing with someone truly interested in finding a job for me. Read more “Senior Law Clerk”
Law Clerk

I was placed as a law clerk and dealt with Kareyn. I emailed ZSA and the team readily responded. My experience was excellent with clear, honest and timely feedback by Kareyn which helped me focus in giving my best in interviews. She was prompt & timely; she responded with humility; and, she was extremely supportive… and went above and beyond to boost my morale to help me secure the position. I have used other recruiters before, and ZSA has an extremely talented team. I have dealt only with Kareyn, and she was superb. I wouldn’t change a thing about the entire hiring process. Read more “Law Clerk”
Senior Law Clerk

I was placed as a senior law clerk and dealt with Kareyn. I engaged with ZSA because of their excellent reputation. Kareyn went above and beyond to get me the job I wanted. She even coached me on the job interview process and put my mind at ease. She told me exactly what to expect… and managed my expectations with respect to salary range which I found particularly helpful. I have never used another recruiter before and, for my field, ZSA is the gold standard. Read more “Senior Law Clerk”
Senior Counsel, Claims Litigation

I was placed as Senior Counsel, Claims Litigation. I had seen a job posted by ZSA on Linkedin and had worked with Amrit Rai on a previous posting before. Amrit was very helpful, excellent to deal with, and responsive. She was supportive; she provided good feedback and clarity throughout the process; and, she is a… wonderful recruiter in my experience over 10 years. I really valued the fact that she helped focus on what the hiring company was looking for, how the recruitment process would proceed, and her follow up to make the hiring a smooth and efficient experience. I have previously used regional and national legal recruiters and ZSA is the best national recruiter in my experience, as they are very helpful to make a match and inform candidates in this process of where they stand. ZSA is the go-to for national recruiting. Additionally, I would like to add that this was a very positive experience and ZSA is an excellent recruiting firm and one of the leading legal recruiters in Canada. I would highly recommend them to senior colleagues. Read more “Senior Counsel, Claims Litigation”
Senior Law Clerk

I was contacted by Kareyn and was placed as a Senior Law Clerk. My experience with her was excellent, and I was kept updated in every step of the process. Kareyn was very professional and a pleasure to deal with. She brought great value to the process by being so helpful and professional, and I… felt that she really cared if I got the job. I have used other recruiters in the past, and so far ZSA was the best. Read more “Senior Law Clerk”
Associate

I was placed as an Associate. I tried to find a job through personal networking and cold applications for a long time. I had heard that another foreign-trained lawyer who had luck with Mike, so I reached out. My experience was excellent in that he was calm and kind and took a methodical approach to… finding work which he explained thoroughly. He discussed his plan and then executed it – keeping me in the loop throughout. Read more “Associate”
Legal Counsel

I was placed as Legal Counsel and dealt with Orit Sinai. I engaged with ZSA because I was unsatisfied with the recruiter with whom I was previously conversing. My experience, overall, was exemplary. I enjoyed the entire process and was very lucky to have found Orit. Orit provided colour on every single posting I considered,… and recommended steps along the way. Other recruiters don’t even compare to the diligence, guidance, comfort , and support I received from Orit. I spent a few months toying with the idea of making a change at work, but have always been apprehensive about the search and hiring process. I spoke with a few recruiters and always felt either pressured or dismissed. Had I known that working with a recruiter was as easy as working with Orit Sinai, I would’ve made the change a long time ago. Orit took the time to speak with me about my short and long term plans. Instead of sending potential positions whilst pressuring me to accept whatever was available, she took the time to provide an assessment of each role and how it matched, or didn’t match, my values and long term plans; and, if that wasn’t enough, she simply had a roster of positions and exclusive postings that were unmatched by other recruiters. Read more “Legal Counsel”
Senior Law Clerk

I dealt with Kareyn Gauthier and was placed as a Senior Law Clerk. I had worked with ZSA previously, so reached out when I considered looking for a new position – I had only applied to one other job on my own. Kareyn was excellent and with me every step of the way. She encouraged… me and gave me confidence in regards to my skill set. Kareyn set out all the expectations from the employer and myself; what steps would be involved in the process; and the info I needed to succeed. Thanks, Kareyn, for making this such a seamless transition. Read more “Senior Law Clerk”
Corporate Legal Counsel

I was placed as Corporate Legal Counsel and had an excellent experience with Travis. Travis, as usual, proactively referred this opening to me. In particular, and most appreciative of Travis, is his response to inquiries and the promptness with which he does so. As well, despite being engaged by, and acting for the client, Travis… is equally mindful and considerate of candidate needs and provides very useful guidance along the way. I have used other recruiters in the past, and for the most part, ZSA compares night and day to them. Read more “Corporate Legal Counsel”
Legal Counsel

I was placed as a Legal Counsel and dealt with Orit. I have worked with other recruiters in the past who reached out to me but found many more opportunities with ZSA, and Orit was not at all pushy about any job. Orit was awesome – she was super approachable; she was always quick with… responses, and she also offered a ton of opportunities. Read more “Legal Counsel”
Associate Counsel

I was placed as an Associate Counsel and dealt with Orit. I had reached out to a few recruiters before engaging ZSA but I found that ZSA made a significantly better effort to place me in a position that I was interested in compared to other recruitment firms. Orit was excellent and a pleasure to… work with! She was very communicative throughout the process and always made things happen as quickly as she could. I felt as though she truly cared about my success and I really appreciated how well Orit listened to my feedback. I went on a couple of interviews and, when I told her what I didn’t like about those other interviews, she took my feedback and then found me exactly what I wanted. I appreciate how ZSA follows through and continues working with clients until they find something they like. I found that other recruiting firms would not follow up if you didn’t take the first job they presented you with. Thank you for everything! I have been recommending ZSA to other lawyers who are looking for new positions. Read more “Associate Counsel”
Senior Law Clerk / Governance Specialist

Kareyn had reached out to me about an opportunity, and I was placed as a Senior Law Clerk/Governance Specialist. Kareyn stands out as one of the best recruiters I have come across during my career. She is highly-effective at narrowing down the needs of candidates and paring them with the right opportunities. Kareyn is prompt… and persuasive with a professional demeanour; she asks the right questions, and she operates with a sense of urgency to minimize delays. She does not try to place candidates in just any role and strives to find an excellent match. Kareyn did a great job at narrowing down the right roles to find an exceptional fit; and she knows the market and recruitment process very well, and I felt confident working with her. Dealing with Kareyn and ZSA was an outstanding experience, and I would highly recommend her. Read more “Senior Law Clerk / Governance Specialist”
Director, Legal

I was placed in a Director, Legal role and have been using Orit on and off throughout my legal career. My experience with her was excellent. Orit was quick, enthusiastic and responsive – always taking my questions or concerns seriously throughout the process. The most important thing I find is that the recruiter be straightforward… and transparent throughout the process and Orit did this. I’ve used other recruiters in the past but ZSA is superior. Read more “Director, Legal”
Legal Director

I was placed as a Legal Director and dealt with Kareyn. I engaged ZSA because I was seeking for opportunities in the legal space and had applied to several roles prior to contacting ZSA.

Kareyn’s resilience was particularly helpful. Read more “Legal Director”
Andrea Vaides

I was placed as a law clerk and dealt with Kareyn Gauthier. I saw that ZSA was the recruiting agent for one of the job postings that I wanted to apply to. Kareyn was excellent an made sure that the hiring process from start to finish ran as smoothly as possible. It was of great… value to have so much stress taken away and help to negotiate my salary. Kareyn was such a great consultant and was on top of everything every single day. She made sure to communicate with me every step of the way and even remembered my start date and emailed me to wish me good luck which meant a lot. I would definitely recommend ZSA to anyone looking for a job because of my experience with Kareyn. Read more “Andrea Vaides”
Associate

I was placed as an associate and dealt with Orit Sinai. I was contacted by Warren in 2019, and then by Orit later in 2020. I liked Warren and ZSA and also really liked Orit, so I kept in touch with her over time and she helped me find this position. My experience with her… was excellent. Orit was always pleasant and professional. She continuingly replied to my correspondence promptly – even if there were no updates, to keep me posted. Orit had valuable knowledge of the marketplace and about the specific firms offering positions. I have used other recruiters in the past, and ZSA is above average. Read more “Associate”
Privacy Specialist

I was placed as a Privacy Specialist and dealt with Kareyn who contacted me. Kareyn was easy to work with, always available, and was timely in her responses to all my inquiries. I appreciated that Kareyn was able to walk me through the process and give me updates/status at all times.
Law Clerk

I was placed as a Law Clerk and dealt with Kareyn Gauthier. I have had excellent guidance and successful placement from ZSA in the past; however, post-COVID, I needed assistance again and contacted them. Kareyn had a good discussion with me about the type of role I was hoping to find and linked me with… opportunities that would be a mutual fit. Throughout the process, she kept me informed with status updates, and it was of great value to have frank discussions and realistic expectations. Without a doubt, ZSA has provided me with more reliable service and satisfactory results. Read more “Law Clerk”
Partner

I was placed as a partner and dealt with Warren and Orit. When I made the decision to move, given the fundamental importance of the decision to my career, I wanted to hire a firm that I considered to be the best in the industry, and based on my experiences, ZSA met the bill. I… did not make any efforts prior to contacting ZSA. From start to finish, my experience with ZSA was seamless and incredibly well managed. From the very first intake meeting, I truly appreciated the time taken to understand my practice, my current situation and my future goals. From that point on, I felt supported at every turn. Evaluating and ultimately deciding to make a lateral move as a partner was perhaps the most difficult decision I’ve had to make in my professional career, but with ZSA on my side I felt empowered and confident in my process and decision-making. Throughout the entire process, about one month from commencement to signing my offer, I felt in complete control and confident that my confidentiality was respected. Moreover, I truly appreciated the candid feedback and advice I received along the way. I never once felt pressured into making a decision, and by the end of the process I felt completely confident in my choice. I could not have been happier with how the process unfolded and its outcome. I once used a smaller recruitment firm (that had approached me for an opportunity when I was an associate). The experience was not comparable and ZSA far exceeded my (high) expectations. Read more “Partner”
Legal Counsel, Eastern Canadian Operations

I was placed in the position of Legal Counsel, Eastern Canadian Operations and dealt with Travis Usher. I responded to an ad in the Ontario Reports by emailing Travis Usher and attaching my resume. Travis contacted me and presented me with options in addition to those advertised in the ORs, which matched my experience and… career goals. I engaged ZSA out of an interest in transitioning my career from private practice to move to in-house counsel. Prior to working with ZSA, I had previously applied directly to a municipality and had also been contacted by another recruitment agency regarding a separate opportunity with a municipality, neither of which were successful. Dealing with Travis was excellent. He is very responsive and helpful and makes himself available at any time during and outside of business hours. Travis is also friendly and approachable and connects with you to learn not just about your relevant experience but also inquires as to what you want out of your career. What was of particular value was his guidance in navigating multiple competing offers and providing timely feedback and advice. Travis also provided strategy on how to maximize my value and negotiate the offers that I received. I have briefly worked with another recruiter/firm, who contacted me for a position in which my experiences aligned. That recruiter subsequently (and abruptly) ceased all communications with me when the potential employer moved on with another candidate. On the contrary, with ZSA, I felt respected throughout and not merely a candidate for a position. Travis worked with me to learn about my goals and then presented multiple postings to me which he believed aligned with my career ambitions. Overall, it was a fantastic experience working with Travis and his team! I again want to thank Travis for his continuous efforts and diligence in working with me to secure an offer and executed agreement. I highly recommend Travis and ZSA!

He took the time to get to know me; he kept me updated on the recruitment process; and, I really liked… his honest and personal approach. The value that he brought to the hiring process was providing me with insights that helped me prepare for interviews. It was so helpful to have the support of the team and to be able to contact them with my questions. I have used other recruiters in the past but I liked the personal attention and support I received from ZSA and everyone was very responsive and caring. I felt comfortable dealing with Warren and the firm and I did not have that experience with other recruiters. Thank you ZSA for helping me find the perfect job. Read more “Managing Counsel”
Duane Booth

I was placed as a Legal Affairs Officer and dealt with Kareyn Gauthier. Previously, I had been conducting my own searches and ZSA reached out to me on LinkedIn about this opportunity. Kareyn was outstanding throughout the process and kept me up to date while consistently following up on things I needed to do. I… sincerely felt she believed in me for the role and that is something I greatly appreciated. I had not used a recruiter before and my first time was a great experience. Again, a big thank you to Kareyn for steering me through this process to become a part of a team that I can further my mission to elevate what paralegals can do. Read more “Duane Booth”

ZSA is unlike any other agency, and Dominique Tardif is certainly in it for something!

I saw a posting in the ORs, and contacted Warren Bongard to discuss further. Warren was great in all respects: timely, accommodating to my schedule, he followed-up and kept me in the loop throughout the process. I have used other recruiters in the past, and while both experiences were positive, ZSA seemed better aware of… the exact needs/interests of the clients, which was helpful. Should I have a need in the future I would definitely contact Warren again. Read more “Teresa Tropea”
Miriam Tepperman

It was an excellent experience working with Warren! Warren had the foresight to match me with a complementary firm with a niche focus, which I would not have considered before.

Anonymous Candidate

I contacted ZSA because I had used Warren Bongard in the past. I did contact another recruiter, but did not proceed with them. Warren is excellent in every respect.

I’ve used a recruiter once before and ZSA was by far my best experience! Read more “Anonymous Candidate”

Travis brought highly valued collaboration and insight into the search process. This included providing feedback on my résumé, a sense of the market, and, of course, presenting appropriate opportunities based on his having a thorough understanding of me as a candidate. Similarly, when supporting me as a candidate for a role, he was able to… present me very well. When it came to the actual hiring process, Travis helped manage mutual expectations which greatly supported us swiftly crossing the finish line. I could not have asked for a more pleasant experience.

Mariana Fonar

From the very beginning Travis was responsive, candid, pleasant, and truly made an effort to help me find the right job, unlike many other recruiters I have worked with. He was very supportive of me, even as a more junior candidate, and I felt like he really cared. I was confident knowing that ZSA was… putting my resume forward to their contacts who I would not be able to reach directly. Travis ended up finding me a great job and I am very appreciative of all of his help! I will definitely recommend ZSA to others. Read more “Mariana Fonar”

I definitely appreciated the valuable experience and knowledge Dominique’s team offered through the whole process and would recommend Dominique to any legal professional seeking advice and support when looking for an opportunity.
Randi Korzinstone

I was very satisfied by my experience working with Dominique. She really took the time to understand what I was looking for in a new job.

ZSA is renowned for the professionalism of its consultants and its level of expertise in the legal recruitment field. As a former recruitment professional, I can appreciate the level of thorough knowledge of their recruiter, Dominique Tardif. ZSA understands the client’s needs, responsibilities, work environment, industry sector, etc. ZSA is sure to identify candidates that… closely correspond to the position profile, while respecting the needs of its candidates. ZSA exemplifies qualify versus quantity, ensuring exchanges between professionals in order to choose the best candidate. ZSA is effective and efficient! Read more “Elise St-Jean”

Lydia Pilch

Warren had originally reached out to me with a prospective opportunity in 2012 and we maintained semi-regular telephone contact since then about prospective placements. I was not otherwise looking for a change, but Warren always had interesting prospects for my consideration. My experience with ZSA has been excellent – Warren is professional, engaging, knowledgeable and… approachable. I often called him for advice during the offer negotiation process and felt that he was a valuable and reliable resource in navigating the discussions. Warren was very supportive throughout the process and made himself available at any time for my questions. He gave me periodic updates, was very encouraging and made the process much easier than I had anticipated. I had been in my previous position for twelve years, so the prospect of moving firms was very intimidating and foreign, but Warren was instrumental in easing the stress of the decision-making process and the finalization of the offer acceptance. Over the years, I have been called by various recruiters and have found them to be pushy, overbearing and that they generally have missed the mark in identifying appropriate opportunities (misunderstand my practice, etc.). Warren is by far the best recruiter I have dealt with and I have highly recommended him to various contacts of mine who are looking for a legal career change. I am very appreciative of the opportunity Warren has secured for me at McMillan LLP and am very much looking forward to my start date! Thank you, ZSA! Read more “Lydia Pilch”

I was placed into a legal administrative assistant position. ZSA was quick to reply to my emails and was always there to answer any questions I had along the way. I really appreciated how quickly they communicated with both my potential employer and I whenever an issue arose. Without ZSA, I know I wouldn’t have… been hired as quickly and efficiently as I was. They also provided me with valuable background information on the companies and positions they were hiring. I really liked how they were able to narrow down positions to those that were of interest to me. I will absolutely recommend ZSA to anyone I know who is looking for a career in the legal field.

Amber made me feel at ease knowing that I was in good hands and that she… was listening to my concerns and preferences. She actually cares about her job and her candidates. I would not hesitate to use the services of ZSA again. Read more “Antoinette Messina”
Rose Marie Lee

I was looking for a more senior level position, and felt that ZSA would help connect me with a great firm and ensure a good fit. I had applied for postings I had seen on my own, but I either never got an interview or when I had taken the job, the firm did not… feel like a good fit. Working with ZSA was fantastic! They found me a Senior Corporate Clerk position with a reputable firm. They were very attentive, responsive, and listened to my questions and concerns throughout the process. Working with ZSA opened up doors that I may not have been able to access myself. ZSA was also more thorough and truly listened to what I was looking for, compared to other recruiters I have used.

I reached out to ZSA in search of a more stable opportunity, where I connected with Amrit who was fantastic in every way. She ended up pitching several opportunities to me, the last of which was the perfect match for what I was looking for. She kept me up to date throughout the entire process,… and was always available for any questions. Amrit had good insight as to the details of the offer, and what the employer was really looking for, in addition to having some great interview tips. I have used other recruiters in the past, but would return to ZSA as they seem to focus just as much on the potential candidates as they do the employers. Read more “Anonymous”

Even when I felt discouraged at times, they always reassured me and managed to make me feel better and motivated to continue my search. Over the few months I’ve been in contact… with ZSA, I’ve learned lots of valuable interview tips and how the hiring process works.

I was contacted by Amber, miraculously right when I was about to contact ZSA – I have always loved using them for my employment needs. Amber was extremely smart, caring, attentive and seems to have an excellent sense in matching candidates with the right firm! It was such a painless and fast job search process.… I really enjoyed working with Amber and she will definitely be the first person I call the next time I am looking. I have used other recruiters in the past, but the number of opportunities ZSA has in hand, the speed they arrange interviews and follow ups, and the way they present everything is so different, it makes them far more professional than any other recruiter I have worked with.

Since the early 2000s, if I were ever seeking new employment, I have always contacted ZSA, or applied to job postings on their website knowing that I would receive prompt and efficient service. Sanoja provided excellent communication in updating me on the status of my application and answered all of my questions very efficiently. I… appreciated the consistent contact and updates – I was never left hanging, not knowing where I stood within the process. While I have used other recruiters in the past, none have been as proactive as ZSA and I would, without a doubt recommend ZSA to others seeking employment. Read more “Debbie Fung”

K.S.

With ZSA’s help, I was hired as a Corporate Immigration Lawyer. ZSA provided excellent service! I was delighted that their services did not simply end when I was offered a position. They went beyond their duties by contacting me after I was offered the position to make sure everything went smoothly and to make sure… I felt confident with the transition. I have used one recruitment agency in the past and ZSA far surpasses them. ZSA is quick and the contact with the recruiter is constant. Thus, you always feel like you know what is going on and the status of the job. In addition, they made themselves available to talk with me after the interview and also after the second meeting with my employer. I found this helpful and it demonstrated exceptional client service skills. I would certainly use the services of ZSA again! Read more “K.S.”

I saw a posting in the ORs, and contacted Warren Bongard to discuss further. Warren was great in all respects: timely, accommodating to my schedule, he followed-up and kept me in the loop throughout the process. I have used other recruiters in the past, and while both experiences were positive, ZSA seemed better aware of… the exact needs/interests of the clients, which was helpful. Should I have a need in the future I would definitely contact Warren again. Read more “Teresa Tropea”
Z.H.

I am now an Associate Counsel at a national firm, responsible for the China practice. I engaged ZSA before, in 2004, when I was placed at then Lang Michener. I reached out to ZSA as I thought ZSA had the resources and expertise I needed. I had a very good experience working with ZSA. First,… they followed up with me after another ZSA consultant I had contacted before left. Second, they were very patient and tolerant of my delay in response or wavering through the course of over half a year. If they had not followed up with me again and again, I’d have given up pursuing further discussions with their recommended firm(s). Third, I was able to talk to ZSA frankly about my feelings, concerns and requirements. Finally, they were very helpful in the offer stage – trying to obtain the best offer for me, finalizing the offer details and getting the offer signed off on time. I was approached by a couple of other recruiters outside of Canada but they were not comparable to ZSA. One recruiter was upset when I decided not to pursue further discussion with a recommended firm. I cannot think of anything that would have improved my experience. I would definitely engage the services of ZSA again in the future. Read more “Z.H.”
Robert Forderer

I had contacted Lana Driscoll regarding ZSA’s ad, and was pleased that communications were fast and professional. When I had questions about the process I knew who I could reach out to. Lana kept me involved and informed throughout the process – I was quickly made aware of where in the process my application was,… so I was not left in the dark about what was going on. This was in contrast to my prior experiences applying directly to firms, where I would receive very little information, and was rarely informed about whether my application was still under consideration. I would definitely use the services of ZSA in the future, should I require them. Read more “Robert Forderer”

I worked with ZSA on my transition between private practice firms. They were extremely helpful in educating me on the process, preparing me for the various interviews and emphasizing my skills to my new employer.

I would recommend ZSA for anyone keen on learning about or seeking out other employment opportunities in the market. Read more “M.J.”

It was clear from our initial interview that Travis was not only very knowledgeable, but also highly engaged and committed in his work. I remember walking away feeling very optimistic even though I knew that the process would not happen overnight. I appreciated Travis’ efforts throughout to present appropriate opportunities and his always following up.… Travis brought highly valued collaboration and insight into the search process. This included providing feedback on my résumé, a sense of the market, and, of course, presenting appropriate opportunities based on his having a thorough understanding of me as a candidate. Similarly, when supporting me as a candidate for a role, he was able to present me very well. When it came to the actual hiring process, Travis helped manage mutual expectations which greatly supported us swiftly crossing the finish line. I could not have asked for a more pleasant experience.

Michael Colwell, Insurance defence litigation associate

I was hired as an insurance defence litigation associate (mid-level). Before contacting ZSA, I solicited several insurance defence law firms myself. I engaged ZSA primarily in order to capitalize on ZSA’s market knowledge. Secondarily, I engaged ZSA because of direct recruitment efforts ZSA could make on my behalf. I expected that my candidacy would be… put forward in relation to appropriate positions. Overall, Graham excelled at providing market knowledge. I found Graham highly effective when it came to supplying timely, effective information relevant to the position I was seeking. Further, Graham took an individual approach towards my candidacy with select law firms. Although market demand has not been strong in my segment, Graham’s support, guidance, and direct action helped me to secure an appropriate opportunity. I would use the services of ZSA again!

Before contacting Amrit Rai at ZSA, I was exploring new opportunities. I had applied to other hiring firms and directly to firms in Alberta and BC. Amrit was excellent – she promptly answered my questions, returned my phone calls and emails. All-in-all, stellar service. I work and live in Alberta.

He did an excellent job balancing his role as a service provider to Osler with ensuring my interests were properly protected. As a former successful lawyer, Mike has a masterful understanding of the dynamics of corporate law firms and was a great resource throughout this process. He had an abundance of information on the possibility that was open to me at Osler. He knows how to speak the language of corporate law and was very knowledgeable about Osler’s areas of practice. Mike was also very responsive to any questions I had and ensured the process moved as quickly and efficiently as possible. Simply put, he got the job done in an impressive fashion. I would like to emphasize that Mike Race did an exemplary job throughout my transition between firms. I strongly recommend him to any lawyer interested in considering their options.

Chris was always in constant contact making sure things were going well. He was able to debrief pre and post interview as well as post hiring. I will be using Chris again when my contract is over! ZSA was very good compared to other recruitment firms I have used in the past and there was nothing that ZSA couldn’t have improved on. I interviewed and got the role locked up quickly.

Jessica Spratley

I have a 10-year, long standing relationship with ZSA and was contacted by Sanoja Desa regarding a potential role. My experience was excellent. Sanoja was fantastic to work with. She promptly answered any questions I sent her way, she helped to negotiate vacation days ahead of the contract coming through and did her best to… ensure that the contract brought to the table was basically ready to be signed. I have had some interaction with other recruiters in the past but have now landed three amazing positions as a direct result of the efforts of ZSA. Although I hope to be at Rogers for the long haul, I would work with ZSA again. I will continue to recommend ZSA to anyone who needs assistance in finding a new position or to employers looking to fill a vacancy. Read more “Jessica Spratley”

Jill Schierer

I was hired for a Litigation Legal Assistant Position. I was looking to leave my current position and found the job posting on Indeed. I contacted ZSA regarding the position through e-mail. They were wonderful! After speaking with them on the phone, I left the telephone conversation feeling like they knew exactly what I wanted out… of my next position. They understood what types of job opportunities I would be good for and that I would enjoy. Any questions I had, ZSA was able to provide answers with little wait time. Overall I have nothing negative to say about my experience with ZSA. I felt like they were looking out for me and where I would best fit rather than just trying to fill positions with bodies. I’ve used two other recruiting companies before ZSA and I found ZSA to be by far the best. The first company I used they were more concerned about just filling a position rather than finding the best fit and once I turned down an offer they stopped looking for me altogether. The second company I used was good, but they would contact me at my current job which I found to be extremely frustrating. I think ZSA did a wonderful job. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a new role. Read more “Jill Schierer”

ZSA recommended the position to me and within a week I had the interview. I have worked with other recruiters for years that to this day have never been able to secure me a temp or permanent position. I would absolutely use ZSA again and recommend them to friends.

Marc-Alexandre Poirier, Formerly at Baker & McKenzie | Hong Kong

I was quite happy practicing law at Davies Ward Phillips & Vineberg (Montreal) but had always wondered what it would be like working in a major business centre like Hong Kong, the financial hub of the world’s fastest growing economy. It was for this reason that I approached ZSA and sought their assistance. They were… extremely helpful in finding me a position at Baker & McKenzie, Hong Kong, where I currently work. I could not have imagined how challenged I would be with the work I am currently handling, whether it is handling a multi-billion dollar capital raising exercise and acquisition for a Real-Estate Investment Trust or cross-border M&A transactions involving assets in China and across Asia. The files are extraordinarily multi-national in dimension; the clients are extremely sophisticated; and, my colleagues are very talented. As for living in Hong Kong, my wife and I are loving every minute of it. I would strongly recommend to other lawyers that they explore their dreams of working in a true global legal centre.

During my lengthy job search I had the occasion to work with various legal recruiters (hired by potential employers) and Dominique was by far the most organized, resourceful, helpful and caring recruiter I came across. Dominique has sound judgment, excellent instincts and innate people skills, and even though she was often retained by the employer,… I always felt as though she had my interests at heart and was genuinely seeking to make the right connection and ensure a good fit for all parties. She was always available to me, did thorough follow-up and gave expert advice – Dominique’s pre-interview notes and preparation are invaluable!

I have been working with ZSA for about 2 years to help me source a permanent role in corporate securities. Working with Sanoja has been an excellent experience – she has been very helpful over the years in trying to secure me roles that she felt would be a good fit. Every time I followed… up after the end of a contract or temp position, Sanoja was helpful sourcing for something permanent when the opportunity arose. Sanoja’s approach in finalizing details and compensation was great as she knows my potential and what I could bring to an organization. Read more “Sue Haran”
Dan McGruder

I had worked successfully with ZSA in the past in addition to applying on my own. ZSA was able to propose a position that was not generally advertised and would otherwise not have been available to me. Working with Lana and Siobhan was a very good experience – I got the first job that was… proposed and fit my qualifications. ZSA was helpful in providing info on the company and on salary talks, I would work with them again. Read more “Dan McGruder”

I would recommend her highly for her professional and diligent manner with kindness and understanding. Merci! Read more “Catherine Lechter”

ZSA was part of my job search after several months of seeking work. My experience working with Sanoja was excellent – she is friendly, professional and courteous. She was very communicative, and was helpful in prepping me for interviews. Although I have used other recruiters in the past, I felt that ZSA took me seriously,… and was up front from beginning to end. Sanoja made all the difference in my experience, and I highly recommend her. Read more “Rhona Humphreys”

I contacted ZSA seeking career guidance and placement and my experience with Warren was excellent. I always felt like I was being considered as he checked in consistently with me. Warren was able to set up meetings with firms that were within my scope of interest – I never felt like I was being forced… to consider firms that were not a fit for me. I have used other recruitment firms in the past, but ZSA was the best experience and very professional. I would very much use ZSA’s services again, although I hope that I don’t have need of them again! Thanks ZSA. Read more “Wayne Lewis”

I had contacted ZSA a couple of years ago with respect to a job posting and ended up meeting with Warren. Recently, his colleague (Orit) contacted me to confirm my interest in a new role. I was impressed that they still had my resume on file to be able to consider me for opportunities. Orit… went above and beyond in helping me through the process. Orit was available and responsive all the time. She was knowledgeable about the role and was quick to find responses to my questions. After an offer was signed, Orit and her team worked hard to complete reference and background checks in order to help me meet deadlines. In addition to all this, what I found made Orit stand out was her positive and motivating attitude throughout the whole process. She became a friend and an advisor while providing excellent and professional help with the hiring process. She truly cares about the candidate and making sure he/she is the right fit for the role. I have used other recruiters in the past, but I found ZSA to be organized, professional, and clear in terms of the job description and requirements. I also find that Warren and Orit really understood what I was looking for in my next role and provided me with the opportunity when it arose. Read more “Nazila Rostami”

I had submitted several applications to larger firms. Coming from a boutique firm in Toronto, I was having difficulty getting the attention of larger firms, though I know I was able to do the work they wanted. I thought having a recruiter assist might be able to get my resume in front of larger firms… and have them consider me as a more serious candidate. My experience with Orit was excellent. Orit had contacted me about several positions for associates in the past year. She was engaging and friendly, and I always felt like she was on my side by really putting her all into getting me noticed. When I eventually interviewed for my current role, she answered all of my questions about the interview process and kept me informed about how I was doing. Overall, I think it really helped myself and the firm find the correct fit. Orit calmed some of my nerves post-interview about concerns that I had and helped me realize that my experience was fairly common for associates of my year level. It was helpful to know and helped me feel confident in proceeding with the next round of interviews. I had been approached by a few recruiters in the past, however I found that they often had positions I was not interested in (roles that were at firms smaller than I wanted) or they would become non-communicative if I did not want to interview for a position. ZSA (and Orit) would always reach out if she thought I was a good fit for a role, even if I had turned down other opportunities and ZSA knew my focus was on working at a mid-sized firm. It was great that I didn’t have to follow up with Orit every few months for positions – she was helpful in finding me roles before they were even posted and really helped to ease the process (in a pandemic no less) that is already quite stressful! It definitely showed me the value of recruiting services over traditional job websites. Read more “Victoria Powers”
Keagan Davis-Burns

I was searching for new employment and connected with Orit via a mutual connection who was a fellow employment lawyer. This was my first experience using a recruiter and my experience with Orit was excellent. She quickly recognized my needs and paired me with a great match; she consistently communicated with me; and she answered… any and all questions I had. The whole process was approximately two weeks from my initial contact to signing my offer of employment. I highly recommend Orit to any legal professional looking for employment. During our first phone call, she was professional, attentive, and had already provided me with great options by the end of the call. She was constantly available throughout the interview process and followed up with me on my first day at my new position. I was confident entering this new position with Orit’s knowledge and guidance and, an added bonus, she is down to earth and fun to work with! Read more “Keagan Davis-Burns”

I was previously looking for a job when my contract was drawing to a close. My experience dealing with Orit was excellent. She not only contacted me with several opportunities and made sure to keep in contact and provide updates about the positions, but supported me throughout the entire process.

I had previously applied and interviewed for a couple positions before finding a relevant job posting through ZSA. Orit was incredibly friendly, supportive and gave me great advice about pros and cons of different positions and the negotiation process. It was great to have an “impartial” resource to navigate different job opportunities. Orit’s knowledge of… the usual process and salaries etc. was valuable for me especially because I was relocating and relatively new to the legal market.

Orit was excellent to work with. She did such a diligent job of ensuring a fit for both sides and preparing me for each interview so that I could address their questions on-point and articulately. I had been at my job for 12 years and it took someone as competent as Orit to provide me… with the comfort and support to make a move! Orit’s diligence on communicating exactly what the role entailed, along with the excellent preparation she provided was integral to making this work. This was my first time working with a recruiter, and I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Orit, I would highly recommend her to any firm and any candidate.

Orit took the time to get to know what I was looking for and to understand my situation.

Orit developed a knowledge of what I was looking for and a thorough understanding of my background which assisted in my placement. I wouldn’t have had access or been aware of this job posting without Orit bringing it to my attention.

Prior to speaking to Amrit, I had been applying for positions on my own but felt that I was spinning my tires, as I was not sure what firms would be interested in someone with my skill set and career goals. I had previously spoken to another recruiter who thought their clients might need someone… with my skill set, but nothing had come of it. Amrit made my job search significantly shorter by suggesting firms who she thought would want someone with my skills. I knew that I wanted to work on large, complex files because I had previously excelled at that work while working on contract at a large firm. However, I had been having very little luck finding openings and securing interviews for that kind of work. I approached ZSA because I thought a recruiter might know what companies had the kind of openings I was looking for.

I engaged ZSA because I had heard fantastic things about them from a mentor of mine. Prior to contacting them I had done some of my own job searching and reached out to a couple other recruiters. My experience dealing with Warren Bongard was excellent and truly could not have been a more enjoyable process.… Warren is the ultimate professional. He was engaged, supportive and proactive. His approach was thoughtful and collegial and instilled confidence in me that I was working with someone who was more than superficially interested in my success. What I found particularly helpful was their well-established connections with a wide variety of law firms, from national Bay Street firms to regional boutiques, coupled with the knowledge of the work environment and “fit” for each. Before contacting ZSA I had a couple conversations with Robert Half and Mirillion Group, but both were subpar in leads and their approach. ZSA is truly a preeminent firm that provides exceptional service. This should be your first call if you are seeking to explore your career options. Read more “Rebecca Curcio”

Orit and Lindsay knew the market, quickly got to know me (quite well), and found me the perfect opportunity. They handled the negotiation of my offer letter. The process was seamless. The turnaround for me from meeting the ZSA team, to interview, to offer, was 3 days. I have worked with many recruiters in New York and ZSA is by far the best recruitment service I have worked with.

Timothy Burton

Eda approached me after conducting a specific search and my experience dealing with her was excellent. What I found really helpful was that fact that she had inside information regarding companies who were hiring but did not yet list an available position. Eda is the most professional recruiter with whom I have had the pleasure… to work. She replied to everything promptly, and she managed to secure an excellent position for me as a corporate law clerk.

I had the pleasure of working with Orit in finding my ideal job! I could not have asked for a more positive experience. Orit is smart, patient, confident and intuitive. She is an incredible listener and has natural ability to match the right personality types to create successful working relationships, all the while turning a… process that can be stressful, into one that is exciting. Orit is knowledgeable, develops great strategy and is in control of the process. From finding the perfect opportunity to closing the deal, Orit was there every step of the way. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication! Read more “Lilia Bogomilsky”

I reached out to Orit Sinai, as I started looking into other career opportunities. Orit took the time to get to know me, and through our conversations, was convinced she knew the ideal fit(s) in terms of employer(s). She actively sought them out and was able to line up interviews for me, even when some… of these firms weren’t actively looking to hire. My experience in working with her was excellent and I would not have found my ideal firm without her. I had no idea what I wanted and where I would fit in. Only through our discussions and her tenacity was I able to realize what I wanted, and receive intel as to how the firm was as an organization. Orit also got me an interview when the firm wasn’t looking to hire. I think Orit is amazing and can’t thank her enough for the time and energy she put into helping me and my career. She is a star!

Hailey Laycraft

I contacted Mike Race regarding a job posting with ZSA for a 1-2 year commercial real estate position. My experience with Mike was excellent. Mike is an incredible recruiter. He was helpful in guiding me through the process; contacted me regularly during interviews; and was very quick to respond to any questions I had. It… was great to have a “middle-man” in the process who had experience with the process and who kept me updated on my progress in the interview process. I have spoken to other recruiters in the past; however, I was underwhelmed. ZSA’s services were superior. Read more “Hailey Laycraft”
Dafydd Samuel

I had worked with another recruiter who, while doing good work, was not moving things along as quickly as I’d liked. Mike is excellent – very fast and a great communicator. He kept me in the loop at all times and appeared to be very well-connected in the market, letting me know what his contacts… were saying and where there might be opportunities arising. While I appreciated the work of another recruiting firm I was using during the process, Mike and ZSA provided superior service. I recommended Mike to a friend, and within a week he had several offers lined up. Fantastic service. Read more “Dafydd Samuel”
Brandon Dean

I engaged ZSA because of Mike’s reputation. I did not apply to any jobs or complete an active search prior to engaging ZSA. Mike was excellent to work with and I will be recommending him to any friends who are hoping for a change. Mike is confident and took care of all of the little… things for me, so I could concentrate on performing in the interviews and making decisions. I have used other recruiters in the past but ZSA has been far superior because I felt less pressured. Read more “Brandon Dean”
Bonnie Andriachuk

I was placed by ZSA in the position of General Counsel & Corporate Secretary. My experience dealing with Mike was excellent. I found it particularly helpful that he was able to move things along quickly and answered my questions. ZSA is excellent compared to others I have used in the past.
Stephanie Cini

I reached out to ZSA as I saw their postings on Indeed. My experience with Eda was excellent. She was friendly, hard-working and professional; she kept me up to speed with all developments; and, she secured interviews with both companies that I had applied to. I particularly found her promptness helpful and of value.
Tamie Dolny

I had seen Travis on my LinkedIn home page and he was one of the initial recruiters who I reached out to when I was searching for a new opportunity. I called three recruiters in total but ended up going with Travis. Dealing with Travis was excellent. The support that he gave me during the… process was phenomenal. I really appreciated his ability to listen to my ‘wants’ and to be available for career discussions during my recruit. He was never pushy and was a pleasure to have in my corner as a cheerleader. I really enjoyed working with him. I chose Travis out of a series of interested recruiters and it was a great decision. Travis has great emotional intelligence and his market knowledge (and flexibility in pursuing leads) was very helpful. Some recruiters can be hyper-aggressive but Travis’ professionalism shone during my work with him. He was patient and careful in listening to my unique placement desires, even as they changed over the course of my recruit. I trusted him with my career (a great decision) and would recommend him again in a heartbeat. Read more “Tamie Dolny”
Melissa Fallon

I was in private practice and found it hard with kids home schooling etc., and wanted to move to an in-house role. As a candidate, I found that Travis provided good service and was very efficient. He was knowledgeable about the company, the position and the people that I was interviewing with. Travis kept me… informed throughout the interview process and was very responsive. He made himself available when I had questions and needed more information, or needed to clarify any questions regarding the offer. I spoke to him quite a bit during the process and he was always very accessible, even on weekends – always responding to e-mails and phone calls within minutes. I ended up getting other offers at the same time and Travis added value by communicating this to the hiring manager and taking the necessary steps to expedite the offer process so that I had all of the information to make the right decision about which position was best suited for me. The steps that Travis took to speed up the process were greatly appreciated because I ended up getting the position that I really wanted. I have used other recruiters in the past and I found ZSA to be more efficient. Also, I find that ZSA places candidates in better positions and has better companies as clients than other recruiting firms do. Read more “Melissa Fallon”
Amir Torabi

I reached out to ZSA directly in response to a job posting for the Toronto Blue Jays and connected with Orit. I have not experienced a recruiter like Orit – she is a star! I found her to be responsive, transparent and knowledgeable about the entire process. I found it very helpful that she was… willing to have brief phone chats prior to interviews or after to get a sense of some tips and to ground me during the process. I have been inundated by recruiters and not one of them came close to connecting with me. I found that Orit was very receptive to understanding my interests and never forced a posting on me. I also found that I was never asked to recommend friends for jobs or give peoples contact information out – I found this off putting when other recruiters did this. My experience with Orit and ZSA was excellent and I would certainly use their services again. Read more “Amir Torabi”
Brigitte Blake

I often recommend Dominique to legal professionals seeking new career opportunities as well as employers looking to fill legal positions. From a job seeker’s standpoint, Dominique’s no-nonsense attitude and her concise, precise and on-point comments and advice on employers, interviewers and the legal job market in preparation for interviews allow a rare insight and advantage… to any candidate able to listen and use her comments to his or her advantage. What’s more, Dominique is a pleasure to work with. If you are looking for an ace in legal recruitment, look no further. Read more “Brigitte Blake”
Yves Papa Tchofou

I engaged ZSA because of a previous positive experience. I dealt with Charline Guay and my experience with her was excellent. Charline advised how to supplement my resume so as to make it more accurate and updated. Her guidelines were also helpful at each step of the process. What I found particularly helpful was her… continuous follow ups and availability to address my concerns. I have used previous recruiters in the past but ZSA relates much more to my legal needs. The firm also represents great clients for stronger relationships. Read more “Yves Papa Tchofou”
Darlene Wasney

I had engaged ZSA previously in my career, both as a candidate and as a client. I had dealt with someone a while ago on another role and subsequently Kareyn had reached out to me more recently regarding a few roles. I had been searching both independently, through recruiters and via my network. I had… an excellent experience dealing with Kareyn and appreciated the level of attention, experience and willingness to have conversations whether directly related to a specific role or more generally about the marketplace. Kareyn was terrific! She listened; she shared her thoughts and insights; and she showed a genuine interest in helping me find a suitable role. I have used other recruiters both currently and in the past but ZSA’s lengthy experience with the legal industry definitely gives them an advantage. Read more “Darlene Wasney”
Allyson Yang

Philip Kariam

I was placed as an Associate by ZSA and my consultant was Travis Usher. I had contacted firms to discuss potential opportunities and one of the firms was working with Travis, and we later connected to discuss the position at McMillan. Working with Travis was excellent. He was diligent; he was persistent; and he communicated… openly and transparently while providing helpful insights throughout our relationship. What was valuable and helpful were his insights about the job market and the McMillan role/offer. Read more “Philip Kariam”
Shivan Micoo

Travis Usher of ZSA contacted me about a Legal Counsel role. In dealing with Travis, the communication, effort and professionalism (amongst other things) were excellent. ZSA provided valuable follow up information; was in regular and timely contact; and gave me strong insight throughout this process. I had not previously used any recruiters before and ZSA… was first class. Travis was overall a pleasure to deal with and it was a great experience. Read more “Shivan Micoo”
Alain Dussault

ZSA approached me earlier this summer for a position at Intact Financial Corporation and I decided to apply for this excellent career opportunity. Throughout the process Dominique was very present and helpful guiding me during every step. She was particularly helpful during the last step to ’close’ the offer and finalize the terms of employment.… Dominique knows very well her clients and the pool of candidates from the legal community which makes ZSA so strong in its field. Thanks to ZSA and Dominique for my new job at Intact! Read more “Alain Dussault”
Rachael McDermott

I was placed as a Law Clerk by ZSA and dealt with Kareyn Gauthier, who contacted me after I applied for the position on Indeed. Working with Kareyn was great and she is an excellent recruiter. I really appreciated her help and look forward to my new role.

I reached out to Orit Sinai to assist in my recruitment efforts and was placed as an Associate with Bennett Jones. Orit was great. She was responsive and very nice to work with. I particularly valued her facilitating the set-up of meetings as well as the negotiation of the offer.
Andrae Shaw

I was placed as an associate at BLG. Orit contacted me for some opportunities and provided support throughout the process. She was excellent in that she was responsive, enthusiastic, reassuring, knowledgeable, and relational. The value she brought to the hiring process was to provide feedback for junior associates in evaluating their options and in providing… opinions regarding career plans. What was particularly helpful was that she spoke from experience and anecdotally, which was persuasive. I have not used any recruiters previously and this was a good experience. I endorse the company, and Orit. Read more “Andrae Shaw”
Nghia Nguyen

Warren reached out to me about a VP, Business & Legal Affairs position. My experience with him was excellent and he provided good communication – even reaching out on a weekend, which helped facilitate a conversation with the company. Warren also made the process of info-gathering easier for me and helped cut through some of… the formality, allowing more casual one on one conversations with the company. Read more “Nghia Nguyen”
Robert Ruddock

I engaged with ZSA in response to an ad I saw in the Ontario Reports and was placed in a lawyer position at Caza Saikaley by Orit Sinai. Orit was excellent as well as being very responsive. She is very knowledgeable about the legal market; she knew what the firm was looking for; and she… set up meetings and interviews. I have used other recruiters before but ZSA was better. ZSA knew of more openings and was more responsive. Read more “Robert Ruddock”
Alex Whitehead

I had started to look at jobs online without a lot of seriousness and Warren was recommended to me by a family member who connected us. My experience with him was excellent and the value that Warren brought to the hiring process was finding the right position for me and negotiating on my behalf. I… had never used a recruiter before and Warren was a huge help. He listened to me when I told him what I was looking for and found the right position at what I am confident will be the right firm!

Vishank Menon

I wasn’t looking for an opportunity until Travis reached out to me about a Senior Manager, Legal position. I would rate Travis as excellent and it was a pleasure working with him and ZSA as they are extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful.

Khristian Khouri

I dealt with Travis and was placed as Legal Counsel with the Canadian Association of Professional Employees. Travis was great. I had contacted him months ago and he told me that the job market wasn’t great at the time but also that he would follow up with me when things improved. Months later, I received… a message from him about a great legal counsel position, and soon after, I had my first interview. Travis helped me all along the way during the interview process, and eventually, I received an offer. Read more “Khristian Khouri”
Cynthia Grelik

I knew that ZSA was the most reputable and trusted legal placement agency in Canada and I wanted to ensure that I worked with an agency that could help me take the next step in my career. As a lawyer with over 10 years of experience, finding quality in-house roles with that level of seniority… was hard to come by and my searches were limited to positions that came up on LinkedIn, and general networking making it difficult to find the right fit. I was hoping that by working with ZSA, I could explore a broader range of options and I also knew that ZSA works with top employers, which definitely influenced my decision to contact Lana. Both Lana and Warren were complete professionals. Lana worked diligently with me for almost one year to find a role that best suited my experience and expectations. She was diligent and patient, always following up and keeping me top of mind. The positions Lana sent me were tailored to me specifically which saved me a lot of time and which I truly appreciated. During the interview process and post- offer, the entire team at ZSA was very supportive and caring. It was an excellent experience overall. What was of great value was their support through the entire process and they were always there to provide information and discuss next steps. Read more “Cynthia Grelik”
Angie Pereira

I was placed as an Executive Assistant and dealt with Kareyn. She was excellent and super easy to work with. Kareyn was also readily available; she acted quickly, and I appreciated the quick turnaround.
Julia Cecchetto

I had been passively applying and interviewing for positions over several months. Orit reached out to me on LinkedIn with some positions I found interesting and invited me to apply resulting in being placed as an Associate Lawyer. Orit was excellent and I found her friendly and helpful in answering any questions I had. It was… very helpful that ZSA’s services simplified things for me. Rather than searching through countless job postings, Orit was able to recommend openings well-suited to me and my areas of interest. Orit was also able to answer questions and provide information about firms, that would likely not be found in a job posting or on a firm website. Read more “Julia Cecchetto”
Jae-Yeon Lim

I was placed as an Associate Lawyer and dealt with consultant Mike Race. Mike is the go-to person who is reasonable, trustworthy and extremely knowledgeable of the legal market. Mike does not make promises but he knows who to contact; he makes the contacts discreetly; and, he has sound advice for the career placement. My… dealings with him were excellent. I have seen many recruiters before but I can tell you that I would not want to go anywhere else except to work with Mike Race. He works with integrity. I have used other recruiters in the past but Mike Race impressed me with his genuine care and his ability to connect with the different firms seamlessly. Mike, thank you so much for finding my new home. Read more “Jae-Yeon Lim”
Tanveer Siddiqui

I was placed as COO & General Counsel through ZSA and dealt with Mike Race. The posting was made by ZSA through LinkedIn which had been my other primary search mechanism. Mike was excellent and always took the time to understand my unique strengths, experience and goals. We had been communicating about roles for years… and he has always given me great advice and perspective on the market and my position in it. He also gave great advice on how to navigate different and sometimes unique recruitment processes in the tech start-up world. I have used other recruiters in the past but my experience with ZSA was superior. Read more “Tanveer Siddiqui”
Paralegal/Law Clerk

I was placed as a Paralegal/Law Clerk and dealt with Kareyn Gauthier. Kareyn moved things along incredibly quickly, was always available and prompt in answering any questions I had, and was overall wonderful to work with. She was also very transparent which helped me negotiate my compensation package effortlessly. I have used other recruiters in… the past but ZSA has been exceptional in comparison. Read more “Paralegal/Law Clerk”
Legal Counsel

I was placed as Legal Counsel and dealt with Orit Sinai. Since early January, I had been applying to some positions on my own, but found it difficult to find opportunities that matched what I was looking for. I saw one posting, which requested CV’s and cover letters to be sent to Orit directly, and fortunately,… doing so led to a professional connection with Orit. I had an excellent experience with her. I first reached out to Orit in respect to a posting I saw online that I thought might be interesting. When I spoke to her and provided more information about myself, she informed me that, while that posting was not aligned with my experience and career goals, she would keep me informed of other opportunities that were. Orit actually listened to what I said and sent me specific opportunities that matched what I was looking for. During the recruitment process, Orit facilitated all communications between me and the organization, which helped move things smoothly and efficiently. Her support was indispensable in reviewing the offer I received from the organization and she made herself available to me, even after hours, as I am currently dealing with extenuating circumstances with my family. I have used other recruiters in the past but ZSA is top notch! I do not think I would have been able to find such a perfect match without Orit. After our first conversation, my career “wish list” was turning into postings Orit sent my way. I felt heard and supported. Orit also went above and beyond to facilitate the hiring process, which made my life easier. Orit was always on my side and I could not recommend Orit or ZSA highly enough. Read more “Legal Counsel”
