After submitting my resume, I had a conversation with two recruiters from the company. We went over my background and my career goals. They explained how their placement agency operates, mentioning they handle both contract and permanent roles, and what they'd expect from me if they found a placement. The interview felt really comfortable because Special Counsel's approach wasn't pushy; it was more about helping me make a good career move. They successfully placed me at a major financial institution in the exact role I wanted. In my 10 years of working with recruiters, many treat candidates like products, but Special Counsel really cares about who they place. In my experience, they're the best agency to work with.

It was a phone interview. They seemed really interested in finding candidates whose skills were a good fit. The interviewer was encouraging and professional. Just a heads up, don't expect to hear back unless you're a top candidate with a solid work history. All in all, it was an okay experience, but it didn't lead to any further interviews or job offers.
