Executive Recruiters

Knowledge of how the recruitment search industry operates will make you a better candidate. It is important to keep in mind the search firm is not working for you; they are working for their clients. Recruiters are generally paid an amount that is equivalent to 1/3 of the starting salary for the position they fill. Often times, recruiters will contact you if they feel your profile fits a position or if they think you could recommend a person for a job.

Recruiting is driven by sales. Recruiters must sell their ability to fill positions to employers and the benefits of a position to candidates. They then must seal the deal by convincing the employer that their candidate is ideal for the position. The recruiter is trying to sell the company to you. It is your responsibility to determine if the opportunity is really worthwhile.

Search executives juggle many tasks. From marketing, to employers, to research and interviews, to preparing and presenting candidates, to helping employers structure offers, they have a multitude of responsibilities. Therefore, the recruiter will most likely return unsolicited communication. It is best to contact the firm’s research department to be entered in their database. If you can be a source of recommendations for the firm, you are more likely to be listed in the database.
