The legal recruitment market is undergoing a transformation driven by factors such as HR digitalization, diversity demands, and new work models (remote/hybrid/flexible).

🔹 Key Insights:

  • The legal sector in Brazil has over 1.3 million registered lawyers with the OAB and is growing at a rate of 5% per year, according to OAB Nacional.
  • It is estimated that 80% of law firms struggle to attract talent, due to the lack of specialized platforms.
  • According to a LinkedIn Talent Solutions (2023) report, 75% of lawyers seek new opportunities outside traditional platforms, relying on networking and informal recommendations.

🔹 Conclusion: There is a market gap for a platform that efficiently and specifically connects legal talent to job opportunities.
