Very professional, great communication. They really care about how a job will fit with you rather than just how qualified you are.

I have been working with Jennifer for the past several months and find her to be extremely dedicated to her job. She has always kept in touch with me whether with phone calls or texts. I would recommend anyone looking for employment to reach out to Jennifer!

One of the most professional staffing agencies I have ever encountered. Jennifer, who helped me, is very proactive, she won’t stop until she finds you a job that meets all your needs, and she will be there with you the whole way. I would highly recommend North Star Legal. Excellent!!

I highly recommend Northstar Legal with Jennifer if you are seeking employment in the legal field (temp or perm) or if you are thinking about leaving the firm you are currently with if you are not happy there. She has an expertise in finding the right fit in terms of the firm culture, your personality, and educational background. Thank you Jennifer!

Lack of Candidate Interest - 1 20 min. visit with manager 3 years ago. Never even followed up to say "Hey haven't forgotten about you." Nothing, zero. Thankfully I was able to find a job on my own within a month in my chosen field.

I was looking for work for about a month when I came across Jennifer Magnusson and NorthStar Legal. She set me up with multiple of jobs interviews and received multiple job offers. I am so happy with everything Jennifer did for me. She would call me everyday with new job opportunities. I finally accepted a job offer from one of the firms Jennifer recommended not only did they offer me $3 more than what I asked for but they are an amazing company to work for. I have been only here for two months and not a day goes by that I do not thank Jennifer for setting this up for me. I am so thankful for Jennifer and NorthStar !!!

There are not enough words I can use to express my gratitude to Jennifer at NorthStar legal! I was having difficulty finding the right place to begin my career as a paralegal and Jennifer hit the ground running as soon as I was referred to her. She truly listened to all of my questions and concerns and after just a few phone calls ( and I’m sure a ton of research on her end) she knew my personality and career goals. She set me up immediately with two interviews with two very different law firms that were both exactly what I was looking for! She gave me options, which I never thought was possible when job searching. I was so discouraged with job hunting before I was referred to NorthStar legal but Jennifer’s professionalism and expertise made finding a good match easier than I could ever of imagined. I’m excited to go to work for the first time in a long time! Thank you Jennifer!

I'm a firm administrator for an insurance defense law firm. I've had the pleasure of working with NorthStar Legal, Inc. for the past three years for our firm staffing needs. NorthStar Legal has filled our staffing needs on a temporary as well as a permanent basis. Jennifer Magnusson, CEO of NorthStar Legal is a great listener and very detailed oriented. She asks the right questions and takes great pride in finding the right individual for the needs of our firm. She even goes further and refers candidates that are not only qualified but are also a right fit for the firm culture. I look forward to a continued business relationship with NorthStar Legal for many years to come.

Jennifer at NorthStar Legal is absolutely amazing! I was recruited during my job search after I recently graduated with my BA. With minimal prior experience within the legal field, Jennifer helped me land a wonderful assisting job at a firm in the Winter Park area! I can honestly say this opportunity would not have been possible without her and her drive to place me somewhere she knew I would thrive. Working with Jennifer was without a doubt a sincere experience, feeling as if she truly cared about this process for me. To add to the incredible effort here, Jennifer made this opportunity happen in only four days of meeting her! I would highly recommend Jennifer at NorthStar Legal!

My experience with Northstar was amazing. Jennifer was wonderful. This was my first time using a recruiter and I’m grateful I was able to find such a great place. Jennifer found me a job immediately. She knew exactly where to send me and after one interview I am happy to say, she was absolutely right about the firm. Thank you Jennifer and Northstar for making my experience a great one.

Jennifer and NorthStar are amazing! Following graduating from college, I was looking for a job in the legal field, as I have an extensive educational background in law but hadn't acquired real-world experience during my studies. Within the week of working with Jennifer I was offered a job at a fantastic law firm in Downtown Orlando and I am so happy working here! I would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone! She is very attentive to your specifications and will try her best to get you the best firm to fit you. You can tell she really cares about making sure that you are happy where she helps place you. I am very grateful to her!

Jennifer and NorthStar Legal are awesome! A year after I took an early retirement, I decided to contact Jennifer and go back to work. I was hired at the first interview she sent me on. Two years later Jennifer worked her magic again and I was offered two positions in one day!! She found the best fit for me and followed up to make sure I was happy. Jennifer goes the extra mile to find the perfect position at the perfect firm.

When I reached out to Jennifer, I was a little apprehensive. Having never used a recruiting service, I had doubts about whether I would get a job that satisfied what I was looking for in my career. I'm SO glad I was wrong! Jennifer not only made the process super easy; she communicated, showed enthusiasm and found the PERFECT fit for me. Not only in job description, but in personality. The firm that hired me matched the culture, personality and pay I was looking for and I am forever thankful to Jennifer and Northstar Legal for going above and beyond for me and finding me the perfect placement. I highly recommend Jennifer for your job searching needs

Jennifer is great. She advocates for her clients and keeps you updated as to the status of the positions she is submitting your resume to. Her determination to get you placed, and responsiveness to requests is very refreshing in this job market. A friend referred her to me and i would recommend her to anyone looking for a position in the legal field.

Jennifer was great! I moved from Massachusetts to Florida and got a job offer the same week I moved. Before moving Jennifer contacted me with the different job opportunities she had for me in Orlando. She got me an interview at a great Law firm that same week I moved and I was actually offered the position. One of the best things I liked about NorthStar is that they care about the candidate not only about the recruiting fees they receive for placing you. Jennifer asked many questions before submitting my resume to make sure the company was a good fit for what I was looking for. After being hired Jennifer kept reaching out to see how things were going at the new job, which I appreciated. I truly recommend NorthStar Legal.

I have attempted to use staffing agencies before when job hunting but they either sent me terrible jobs or didn't come close to what I was already doing for myself, NorthStar Legal found me a great job in a great firm and I couldn't recommend them enough. Jennifer and her team have exceeded all of my expectations.

It is a hassle to get paid. There’s ALWAYS a “miscommunication” about assignments and pay. and jobs are never guaranteed. Wasted almost a week at a job that turned out to hire within supposedly but the position is posted again. Then informed I wasn’t getting paid for another assignment because of a b.s reason. I DONT RECOMMENCED THIS STAFFING AFENCY TO ANYONE!!!!!

JENNIFER NEEDS A RAISE & THE BIGGEST BONUS YOU GOT!! :)
Working with Jennifer has been the best experience ever. She gave me great advice & helped me throughout the entire process. She's been in the industry for years, and it shows through her knowledge of the legal field & what employers are specifically looking for in their new hire. Thanks to Jennifer's help, I recently got hired at one of FL's largest, & well respected law firms just in time for Christmas! :)

I was employed at a firm, but was unhappy with the way things were going. I started searching for a new job that fit all my requirements, and I ended up finding Jennifer. I told her what I needed and what I was looking for and she set me up with an interview the very next day. She prepped me before the interview and gave me some insight into what the firm was looking for. She did a great job matching us, and I was hired 15 mins after my interview. I start my new amazing job on Monday! I owe it all to Jennifer at North Star Legal.

I have worked for this agency since 2004 when they were known as The Practice, Inc. I worked with them for 5 years as a temp. I never lacked work and they paid me very well. In 2009, I accepted a permanent position at a law firm that I had temped previously. When my boss retired, I elected to go back to temping. I called Northstar and surprisingly Jennifer remembered me. She had a position for me right away at a nice firm in Winter Park. I have been with Northstar for a few months now. This is the only agency I've had to work with as they have always had an assignment ready and available for me. Thank you Jennifer for all you do.

Jennifer is INCREDIBLE!!!! I lost my job due to the hurricane Maria, randomly Jennifer call an reached me out for a position that I didn't' qualify for and within 24 hours she had an interview set up for me. She ensured that I was prepared and that I had everything necessary submitted. She worked hard to ensure that I did not miss out on an opportunity and she did it all for someone who she had never met before in her life. I recommend her.

I loved working with Jennifer! I have always prided myself in the ability to find and hire good people, but for a while now I have not had any luck finding good candidates. Jennifer assessed our needs and culture and found the perfect fit - twice! She is good with her description of the candidates and open to feedback good or not so good. She is a pleasure to work with. I will definitely use her the next time we have an opening.

Recently, I found myself in an unforeseen circumstance wherein I became unemployed after a relocation. I remembered how good Jennifer, from Northstar, was to me when I lost my job back in 2009, when the economy crashed. This time, (2017), I lost my job on a Wednesday and Jennifer had me at a new job assignment on that following Monday. Yes, thanks to Jennifer I was only out of work for two days! The following week she landed me an even better position. Today, that position, which is a well known defense firm, made me a permant offer of employment! Jennifer is quick, well-connected in the legal community and an effective communicator. Trust her to find you that great position you deserve!

I applied for a job that I did not qualify for. Rather than just ignoring me, Jennifer Magnusson reached out to be about another position that I did qualify for and within 24 hours I had not only applied but had an interview set up. She ensured that I was prepared and that I had everything necessary submitted. She worked hard to ensure that I did not miss out on an opportunity and she did it all for someone who she had never met before in her life. I'm still in awe at how she was able to get everything done so quickly and I appreciate the time that she took to go over and discuss things with me to ensure that I was not only prepared for this interview but so that I could succeed in the future.

For lack of a better word at the moment: WOW!! I had never even thought to try working through any job placement company. Although I already had what I thought was a great job offer, Jennifer got a hold of my resume and somehow, contacted me, and set me up with an exciting new interview the very next day. Although, I had already been offered a great position somewhere else, I decided to give it a shot. Right from that very moment, the job search process felt so much smoother once I had Jennifer to communicate with. She was so knowledgeable, dedicated, and she must surely have a great gut instinct in addition to her experience, because she lined me up with the perfect job just for me. During my new career search, I had been contacted by a number of placement agencies. I did not consider working with anyone until Jennifer from NorthStar reached out to me and I felt comfortable immediately. I took her advice and could not be happier with the results. She certainly has a gift in her position. It would seem that she knows people and I would surely recommend only her and her staff at NorthStar to any empoyer or employee. What a great match maker she is! If you are in the need for any of these services, THIS is the company to use! Thank you Jennifer and NorthStar!

I moved back to Orlando after 28 years in Kansas City, MO. I signed up with 4 agencies and Jennifer at North Star Legal was the only one who took the time to really look at my skill set and find an excellent job for me at an excellent firm. She made a great match on both ends, not just for the law firm to fill their position, but for me too! I love my new job and the people there! Jennifer not only got me working, she got me a great career at a great firm! Jennifer and North Star Legal are the best!! Hopefully I won't ever be in need of a new job again because I see a long happy future at my current firm, but if I ever do, I will call Jennifer for sure!!

Jennifer and North Star Legal were amazing at finding my new home when I was looking for a new job. Jennifer was there from start to finish and was on top of everything with following up with the firms after each interview. She works hard for her clients and won't take no for an answer. She is very good at seeing your personality and finding the perfect firm for you. I would highly recommend Jennifer and North Star Legal and will definitely use her in the future (hopefully I won't have to though).

Jennifer and Northstar went above and beyond in procuring me the right job. She did not just find me a job, she made sure it was a good fit. She took time to sit with me, guide me and to know me well enough to find my current position. I have been in my current position for 2 1/2 months now and I am very happy. I would strongly suggest anyone looking for a job in the legal field to give her a call.

It is my pleasure to highly recommend Jennifer Magnusson at NorthStar Legal. I recently moved to the Orlando, FL area from out of state and was looking for immediate, full-time employment with either a temporary or permanent position. Jennifer promptly responded to my inquiry, scheduled an interview with me and placed me in an excellent temporary position within 24 hours! That position turned out to be a perfect fit for me and quickly led to a job offer. Throughout the entire process, Jennifer was a joy to work with, very knowledgeable, attentive and friendly. She helped to prepare me for the local job market and provided advice to guide me through the process.

I've worked with several agencies over my career, and contacted more than one when I moved to Orlando. In comparison, a few things became obvious - Jennifer truly knows the local job market, is well-connected with the local firms, and genuinely cares about matching the right candidate with the ideal employer. I never once felt like she was trying to hold me back or settle for less than I deserved. I can certainly say that NorthStar Legal is an excellent resource for good candidates looking for job placement in the Orlando area. I highly recommend working with Jennifer at NorthStar Legal.
