Consilio’s Project Management Apprentice Program is a 10- to 12-week paid engagement designed to develop skilled Project Managers. After a successfully completing a combination of classroom instruction, applied learning experiences, mentorship, and hands-on client work, participants in the program are offered a full-time Project Manager position. This apprentice program has become an important source of diverse talent at Consilio: In 2022, 82% of the PM Apprentices were women, and 65% identified as non-white.

The newly launched Consilio Sales Associate Program (CSAP) is an early-in-career development program designed specifically for law school graduates and entry-level sales professionals who aspire to become the next generation of sales leaders at Consilio. This year-long program provides world class, hands-on educational and experiential training designed to develop participants to become successful members of Consilio’s industry leading sales team. Each CSAP class will be selected with careful attention to ensuring that a diverse group of talent enters our sales organization.

Building on a relationship with the National LGBTQ+ Bar Association established by Legility, which integrated with Consilio this year, we sponsored the annual Lavender Law conference and career fair. Through this sponsorship, which included a career booth and hosted cocktail reception, our talent acquisition team engaged with lawyers in the LGBTQ+ community who are potentially interested in career opportunities with Consilio.

Consilio’s Summer Internship Program exposes a diverse group of law students and undergraduates interested in the legal services industry to practical job experience, plus education from experts in this evolving, dynamic job sector. Participants in the program are assigned to various learning tracks including Discovery Consulting, Review Services, Project Management, Data Analytics, and Legal Technology. Our hope is that these summer interns will return to Consilio when they’re ready for permanent roles. In 2022, 44% of our interns were women, and 33% identified as persons of color.

As part of our effort to expand our relationships with HBCUs, Consilio piloted a new partnership with North Carolina Central University School of Law. NCCU School of Law recently launched its Technology Law and Policy Center, which aims to position its students for careers in the legal technology space. Consilio plans to engage NCCU students and facility in a variety of ways, such as presenting to law school classes about the legal technology services industry, inviting law students and faculty to attend CLEs and industry webinars hosted by Consilio, and partnering with the Career Development Office at the law school to offer students career support and expose them to job opportunities. We hope to use this partnership as model to replicate with other HBCUs.
