In this week's episode of The Law Firm Blueprint, Jay Ruane and Seth Price dive deep into the current legal hiring crisis. Seth explains why the coveted 3rd-to-8th year attorneys are nearly impossible to hire due to loan forgiveness programs and shifting economic incentives. The solution? Creating structured summer programs to build an in-house talent pipeline, a model scaled by big family law firms. The hosts stress that client response time is "everything," and having a "hungry" DNA is an unteachable trait that determines who succeeds. They debate how to structure compensation for lawyers who fail at sales but are great in court.
