Virginia Villena, Consultant HAYS Recruiting Experts in Legal, comments:
"The in-house lawyer has recovered its role in the company. It also increased the demand for these professionals and compliance departments to grow seeking attorneys estate and financial issues. Somehow, you are adjusting the talent available with demand. "
The market demand is no longer a generalist lawyers, by contrast, tends to specialization.
"Professionals with expertise in very specific areas are sought, even in the case of in-house lawyers, whose demand is also justified by the need to reduce costs against the high cost of the offices, only outsourcing operations or specific topics"
The most popular profiles are oriented areas such as compliance, real estate, financial and concerning mergers and acquisitions. For compliance profiles increased demand coincides with a significant shortage of professionals.
"It's a relatively new specialty in Spain and there are few professionals with the knowledge and experience required. Its mission is to ensure compliance with existing regulations as well as legislative developments by companies because, otherwise, their managers may incur criminal liability. Demand will continue to grow. They are responsible for establishing the necessary protocols to accommodate regulatory changes and verify that they met. "
According Virginia Villena, these good prospects represent a very encouraging for young people who are studying law and prepare to find their first job news.
"They should take every opportunity to emerge them. They must understand that practices in an office are often the best way to develop talent and gain experience and, with them, to find a stable job."
