As reported in the Philadelphia Bar Reporter:
JuriStaff's exclusive endorsement from the Philadelphia Bar Association has recently been renewed through December 31, 2009.
In February 1999, the Philadelphia Bar Association's Board of Governor's adopted a resolution to engage JuriStaff as the Association's acting career planning and placement service. The resolution was presented by Stewart Weintraub, chair of a committee that worked to replace the Association's in-house service, which was discontinued in January 1998. Weintraub reported that the committee requested proposals from 15 agencies, received nine proposals and interviewed six agencies.
The committee recommended that JuriStaff, a local company run by lawyers, be considered for a one-year renewable contract to provide career planning and placement services to Bar members. JuriStaff's proposal includes career counseling and resume review, job postings, placement and promotion of the service to Bar members.
Weintraub told the Board that JuriStaff was "very professional and very aggressive. They want to make this partnership work."
