Diversity Recruiting: Presenting a diverse pool of candidates to our clients is nothing new at Prescott. We point with pride to the very first placement ever made by Prescott Legal Search: the first female associate hired by a Houston-based municipal bond firm. The year was 1981, our first year in business.

Over twenty years ago, we placed our first ethnic minority, an African-American woman who was hired by Tenneco, Inc., a Fortune 500 company. Since we commenced business, year after year we have presented our clients with a broad spectrum of candidates. Our efforts have resulted in the hiring of an impressive number of minority candidates by both law firm and corporate clients.

While some recruiting firms are now jumping on the diversity bandwagon as if it were something new, we simply point to our long-standing commitment to and production of a pool of the best possible candidates. We haven't waited for our clients to ask us to recruit diversely - it's always been our approach.

We have recruiters who are involved in the minority professional community so that we can stay apprised of where the talent is. And we are able to identify problems that may hinder diversity hiring within an organization and develop real solutions.

We are pleased that our efforts have resulted in the hiring of a group of legal professionals who represent the full spectrum of America's top legal talent. For more information about our ability to present clients with a top quality, diverse group of candidates, please contact Tish Hinojosa Elliott at 512-482-9442 or 866-482-9442 (toll-free).
