Law firm marketing departments continue to grow at a rapid rate. In 2006, we placed 37 marketing business development and public relations professionals into law firms, compared with 24 just a year earlier. What are firms looking for today when they decide to hire a new director? What do directors seek when they decide to make a move? To gain further insight into these questions, we interviewed one CMO and two Executive Directors who recently hired, or are about to embark on hiring, a new director. In addition, we interviewed two seasoned directors to determine what convinced them to make a move and decide that this would be the 'right' position for them.
