Choosing an Executive Search Firm
ign="center"> My husband has been a criminal defense attorney for over twenty years. During many of our dinner conversations, he tells me about one of his peers and the underwhelming work they have done representing a client.

Like the legal business, not every executive search firm is created equal. It is often that I am called upon to ârescueâ a search started by another search firm. Despite the abundance in recruitment...
Executive Search Firms - Finding the Right One is Important For Your Success
Retaining a good executive search firm to find executive candidates for your company is important for your long term success. Hire one poor performing executive and it sets you back months if not years, and is bad for the morale of your team. Hire a star performer and it can do wonders for your business. Before you start to look, it is a good idea to do some homework. First create a list of key performance indicators (KPI) with clear deadlines. This is a list of things the candidate is expected to accomplish on the job. For example if you want the new hire to open up European market for your product, you would write, "Open up Eastern Europe for widget x, making it accessible to at least 45% of the...
I Want to Start an Executive Recruiting Firm
You may think that the worst type of business to start right now would be one that deals with finding jobs for corporate executives. After all the unemployment rate is quite high, and most companies are not hiring. However, this means you can get a greater percentage from the seller's side, or the executive who really wants to get work badly.

Just because we are rounding out the recession and recovery in our economy is no reason not to start an executive recruiting firm right now. In fact, I recently read a very good book I'd like to recommend to you on this very subject. The name of...

Some people still view them that way, but executive recruiters are a vital link in a chain that keeps major enterprises functioning well. The top positions at any organization dictate the fortunes of the company, the shareholders and the employees ... and often the communities in which they are located.

When looking for that new job or if trying to get back into work after redundancy, many people start their search by contacting as many executive headhunters as possible.

Firstly, the candidate is relying on the fact that their career resume will automatically be read. In fact most search firms now use a software package that can read a career resume and search for keywords in approximately two seconds. Your resume is then filed in a database and perhaps not see the "light of day" for sometime. The second reason is that recruiters and headhunters simply do not have the time to read the...
