Law firms definitely spend lots of resources in that area already. You'd think they would use new technology to try to appeal to the young people they're trying to win over. I've seen a couple firms do that a bit. One firm gave away USB thumb drives at on campus interviews. But that alone is pretty weak. Andrew Peter,

But recruiting is very competitive for all of them. They can't be complacent about that. Peter Andrew,

With regard to marketing and business development, the AmLaw 100 may think they don’t need to adapt, at least for now given how profitable most of them are.

But recruiting is very competitive for all of them. They can’t be complacent about that.

They are lumbering Goliaths, for the most part. Honestly, I think part of it is that they don't think they need to adapt. It looks like you've got a cool company going. Best of luck to you. Let me know if I can help in any way with blog needs, or if you'd be interested in a sponsorship here at Legal Andrew. Take care, Andrew Hi Peter,

On the other hand, if you look over the websites of the AmLaw 100, there is very little in the way of video, podcasts or other digital media. Law firms are spending lots of money on recruiting, marketing and business development, but unlike most other industries this hasn't translated into media on the Web. Any thoughts why?
