Law firms are increasingly looking beyond the legal industry to hire Chief Marketing Officers and other management level officers who have broad experience in the corporate sector. The problem is that no matter how talented a person, if they cannot successfully assimilate into a law firm culture it will never work. Firms must examine their hiring process more so than ever to be sure that the candidates they evaluate will actually be able to succeed in the legal industry. Personality testing is increasingly being used to screen candidates to make sure they can successfully make the transition before the job is offered to them.
Turnover of Chief Marketing Officers is happening at a remarkable pace. The reasons are many ' from the inability of the individual to further effect change with the firm, to declining loyalty. One increasingly prevalent, but often unmentioned, reason is a poor selection process that does not consider cultural integration into the firm. Firms seeking lateral partners do not hesitate to run cultural inventories to make sure the firm and the candidate(s) will mesh. However, when it comes to choosing a new CMO or senior level management position, cultural integration is not given the same consideration. Although many firms invest considerable resources to train employees in interviewing techniques, these techniques do not assess certain personality attributes. As a result, many of the CMOs hired are inappropriate because they are either unable to fit into a particular firm culture or they do not have the specific personality traits needed for that particular position.
