Avoid negative keywords for your law firm. #careertips

Law firms want to avoid targeting price shoppers, incorrect geographic queries, employment seekers and much more. It is important to note that even if someone does not click on your ad and you aren’t directly paying the price of that click, the impressions you get that are not clicking lower your CTR (click through rate), and can detrimentally affect your Quality Score.

Accretive's Breach: Failed to provide reasonable and appropriate security measures.

The FTC alleged in a complaint against Accretive that the company failed to provide reasonable and appropriate security measures and procedures to protect consumers’ personal information, including sensitive personal health information. The failure to adequately safeguard the data led to a July 2011 incident in Minneapolis, Minn., when an Accretive employee’s unencrypted laptop computer containing data on 23,000 patients of the company’s hospital clients was stolen from the worker’s car.

How Companies Can Attract the Best College Talent #law

Too many companies are focused on giving away swag, under the perception that free stuff gets eyeballs. But Millennials are more interested in identifying with your mission than they are in a free T-shirt. If you want their mindshare you have to go beyond swag, and that concept should extend beyond career fairs to everything they read and hear about you.

Retreats let firms face themselves #law

A retreat allows attorneys (either including or excluding associates) to meet for an extended period of time away from the office and the daily pressures of business to discuss issues concerning the firm and developments in areas of the law and trends in the firm's practice in light of these developments. Many firms consider specific problems, while other firms conduct retreats to identify goals and reach consensus on them.

The Modern-Day Mobile Lawyer's Manifesto

Mobile lawyering brings with it great freedom but, without proper precautions, great peril. If our hypothetical graphic designer has her laptop stolen, she loses her work product and creative goodies, but for us as lawyers, the stakes are higher: We get sued for malpractice. If you neglect your security protocols, you have opened yourself up to an ethics complaint, malpractice suit, or both. That said, let me run through some of my favorite mobile safety tips.

Dealing with Tensions Surrounding Partner Compensation

Partners who do not generate much of their own business, but have high billable hours, obviously promote a system based upon billable hours only. Partners who tend to bring in a great amount of "rain" and allow it to be serviced by others, normally would promote a system based solely upon origination.

How Difficult Is Your Maze? How To Be A 'Hard Target'

At the end of the day, cybercrime is about economics – attackers look to turn a profit, and the more you can slow them down, the more disincentive they will have to come after you. As you slow them down with your outbound maze, you also rapidly increase your odds of being able to detect them – watching one exit out of a maze is far easier than watching an open field!

Usability & SEO what is the relation

You need less quantity of text, images, “buttons” and links. Make sure you offer the visitor useful and interesting information, as intuitively as possible. A great way to do that is to make a list, so the visitor can detect and “scan” the text for the information that they are looking for.

Personalization in search marketing is not something new—it was (re)launched on Google in 2005. Still, it was only with the launch of "Search, plus Your World" (January 2012), the rollout of the Venice Update (February 2012), and the introduction of Google Now (July 2012), that the personalization factor has become predominant.

The Korn Ferry Compensation Survey of Institutional Sales: Asset Management

Regulatory requirements and political pressures have altered the compensation environment, with deferred compensation now a primary component of pay packages. This makes hiring senior talent very costly, as the best candidates want to recoup the unvested deferred pay they leave behind when changing companies. Asset managers must leverage other aspects of their firm to attract talent, hire intelligently to minimize the expensive risk of each new hire, and put more focus on development and retention.
