Nadine Bocelli & Company, Inc. – New York Legal Staffing, Inc

People often say that recruiters look out more for themselves than their clients, but I can honestly say that Nadine Bocelli & Co does not fit that description. I had a fantastic experience with the whole team, and I think people should know that there are some truly great recruiters out there.
I worked primarily with Heather, but everyone from Nadine and Sereno to the receptionist genuinely did their best to make the job hunt seem so easy. Clearly they understand that this process can be stressful, and they care enough to do everything possible to make it less so. They matched me with interviews at great firms, and provided advice along the way to help me succeed. They reviewed all letters I wrote and gave tips on how to make them better. They literally updated me daily on the entire hiring process. Even when they were not in the office, they made themselves available in case I had questions.
In the end, I found a great job at a new firm and I couldn’t be more excited, all thanks to Nadine Bocelli & Co.

I’ve worked with Nadine Bocelli & Company twice. The first time, I was much younger and I did not have very much office experience at all. They had a tougher time finding me something but that may have been my lack of experience at the time and also perhaps the state of the job market.
Years later after I completed a paralegal associate’s degree, they were able to find me something less than one month out of school that suited my skill set very well. In both occasions I worked with Libby and I LOVE HER!!! She genuinely wants to help find you what will work best for you and she is so pleasant to work with.
I’ve been at this firm for over a year now. Thanks Bocelli!

Nadine Bocelli & Co. were a wonderful resource for me. They sent me out on several temp jobs that were a godsend while I was unemployed.
Then, when a job unrelated to their agency fell through and I was very worried about what I would do next, they hired me as their Administrative Assistant while they searched for full-​time work for me.
I learned a lot while there, and it was great to have them on my resume while I searched for work.
They ultimately ended up placing me as a paralegal at an IP Firm, and it has been going really well so far. I went in for an interview and was offered the job the next day.
Having an insider and an outsider perspective, I would definitely recommend them if you have any office experience at all and are looking to get into the legal field. I would also recommend using them if you are a recent grad with an internship or an on campus job under your belt. Also obviously recommended if you are an experienced Paralegal, Legal Sec, Attorney, Docketing Clerk etc.
If they don’t find you something immediately, it does not mean that they are not looking. The second that something comes in that matches your qualifications, they will get in contact with you to see if you’re interested.

I definitely did not go to an Ivy League college. I transferred to a private college… And then it was voted the worst school in America.
Twice.
I wrote a convincing cover letter when contacting Bocelli. Serrano went above and beyond to help me find a job. I ended up magically finding a great position via Craigslist, but Serrano Bocelli worked with me to make sure I was interview-​ready. On that note, I’m sending him a card.

More of a question rather than a review:
Does anyone know if Nadine Bocelli & Co. is in connection with Filcro Staffing?
The only reason I ask is that a few years ago I sent my resume to an open ad by Nadine Bocelli and about a week later I got a cold call from Filcro. Unfortunately, the person I interviewed with from Filcro actually seemed ANGRY that I came in. Hence it should not be surprising that I was not placed.
If anyone knows, please let me know. Thanks!

The attorney market in New York is dead and has been for years. It’s only natural that people in my position look to agencies for help with placement. I sent a resume to NB&C more than a month ago, but perhaps because my resume doesn’t say Columbia or NYU, I should not have expected a response. I still have received no response. Unless you’re a top student from the top tier, don’t bother. Nadine isn’t interested and neither are her clients.

Bogus legal staffing agency. They are extremely small, have very few opportunities, and are HORRIBLE at getting back to prospective candidates.
