Internal recruiters only care about positions at their company. External recruiters really only care about an applicant if there’s a position that needs filled that they’ve been contracted out to fill (mainly because they get a cut, don’t fault them for that).
What I’m curious is if there is someone who is willing to work on your behalf and leverage connections they have in an industry to find a person a job regardless of where it is.
Im either using the wrong search terms or it doesn’t exist (for reference I’m looking for Director+ IT).
Its like the way realtors used to be. Keep in mind that ideally they want to connect the best fit for the job to the employer which is also good for the job hunter and although its up to the job hunter to only take adequate compensation it is in the interests of the employer to not lose employees due to low compensation (although im not sure if any employers are still doing those calculations). I was just thinking this is a good example of people who fear ai. If AI can’t sift through and find the best employee for a position out of the posted online resumes then its not going to eat all the lunches.
