Job Description

Build Your Desk. Earn Real Money. No Excuses. Just Opportunity.

My business partner and I aren’t wealthy. We didn’t inherit a recruiting firm—we built Mission Recruiting from scratch in 2013 with almost nothing. Over the years, we’ve created something we’re proud of: a national legal recruiting company with returning clients, proven systems, and a great core team.

But we’ve also learned some tough lessons. Too many recruiters say they’re hungry, then give us the bare minimum. That doesn’t work anymore—for us or for them.

So, we launched our 1099 program . No salary. No hand-holding. Just a chance to earn big commissions, work on your own schedule, and plug into a company with real jobs, tools, and infrastructure. And it’s working.

Who This Is For:
This is for experienced recruiters who know what it takes to close deals and want more freedom and reward for their effort.

You'll need:

• Strong agency recruiting experience , preferably in direct hire

• A hunter’s mindset and comfort calling passive candidates

• At least 20 hours a week —any less and you’ll struggle to build momentum

• A good computer, strong internet , and ideally dual monitors

• Experience in legal recruiting is ideal, but legal experience as a paralegal, attorney, or legal assistant is also very helpful

• This is not for high-volume recruiters or those with only HR backgrounds—we don’t onboard candidates, we place them

What You Get:

• Access to hundreds of open legal jobs nationwide

• Some of the most aggressive commission rates in the industry

  • Earn 33% to 38% on placements , plus bonuses for business development

  • Keep 100% of your share on jobs with no account manager, or partner on split jobs

• Time to fill can be as fast as 14 days

• Payouts as soon as 30 days after placement and receipt of funds

• Daily candidate flow from our marketing team—people applying to jobs you can engage

• Full admin support for job edits, offer letters, and more

• Optional daily training sessions to master our ATS and refine your recruiting strategy

• Access to:

  • Weekly Pipeline Meetings

  • Recruiter Roundtables (our top 10 hottest jobs)

  • LinkedIn Lounge (for social media support)

  • Client Spotlights (live Q&A with law firm clients)

We’ve been remote since 2018. We don’t micromanage, and we don’t chase people for activity. We know that talking to candidates closes deals , not dashboards or metrics. If you need someone to tell you to work, this isn’t the right fit.

But if you want a proven platform , strong support, and a real chance to make six figures on your terms , you’re exactly who we’re looking for.

We’re not promising easy. We’re offering real.

Let’s talk.
