2What this board answers

Three questions from the December 2024 discovery call, answered live.

3Placement flight map Delray Beach ↔ Chicago → client metros

Each arc is a placement route from the office running the search to the metro where the hire landed; arc weight = placements.

4Talent pipeline sourcing → placed

Candidates carried through each stage for searches closed in the period; band width = candidates.

5Fees & placements by practice

6Time-to-fill by practice days, signed search → accepted offer

Band = 25th–75th percentile; dot = median. Dashed line = firm-wide median for the period.

7Active searches by stage snapshot, 10 Sep 2026

Every open search, placed on its stage; darker = longer in stage. Amber ring = 30+ days in current stage.
