Executive Recruiters – 1
This is the first in a series of posts where I will review and list Executive Recruiters. As I review these sites, I will add them to the “Employment Firms” link on the right-hand side of the website.
Executive Recruiters are typically recruiters that specialize in high-end job searches usually by retainer (paid up front for the job search, rather than after the individual is hired). Headhunters or recruiters tend to work off of commission once they’ve successfully filled a job.
- Korn/Ferry - A global executive recruiter. They have numerous offices across the US and have offices in quite a few international locations as well. You can register with their site, search their site for current opportunities (and apply) or contact a consultant.
- Russell Reynolds Associates - Russell Reynolds is also a global executive recruiter. Unlike Korn/Ferry, you can not search their site directly for current opportunities, but you can find a consultant and send your resume.
- Spencer Stuart - Another global executive recruiter. Similar to Korn/Ferry, you can register on the site as well as send your resume. There does not seem to be an option to search for current opportunities.
In the case of job search, more is more. That is, you need to get in contact with as many people and companies as you can in order to maximize your chances. I will review more executive recruiters in future posts.
As always, good luck in your search.
