Here are some recent highlights of Modern Signal's work in creating custom website and mobile solutions for our clients.

December 2013

The National Association for Law Placement (NALP) launches its new Canadian Directory of Legal Employers. The website provides job seekers with details about Canadian law organizations and their hiring practices. Modern Signal redesigned the front-end display and programmed the back-end admin tools to streamline employers' data entry, reduce support time required of NALP staff, and increase completion rates. Most notably, the site offers multi-language support, allowing employers and job seekers to toggle quickly between French and English, and NALP to manage extensive site content in both languages with ease.

Testimonials

  • Modern Signal worked with us to understand our needs and figure out what solution would work best for us. Our Lighthouse CMS is perfectly suited to our website goals. When we later needed to modify the CMS, they again took the time to understand exactly what was  needed and then built that functionality rather than delivering a cookie cutter solution.
