In many ways, my partners and I are very lucky, or persevering, or both. In our business, executive recruiting, we always get calls from senior professionals that are ready take the next steps in their careers or C-level executives looking for the top leaders in the industry in order to build their organization to the next level.
We are fortunate enough to have the luxury and ability to choose who we are going to partner with and who we are not. Personally, I love helping people make their next career move, that big life decision. But I do it to make a living.
Candidates should try to understand that doing a lot of the searching for a new job on their own, through their own network, is truly difficult and should they decide to do their search this way, then we do not need to get involved.
On the client side, we try to inform our clients that we neither have the time nor the desire to work on things that are never ending and quite frankly not going to make either of us any money. Meaning, if our client is posting ads and collecting hundreds of resumes on their own, then our services aren’t needed and we move on. However, if our candidates and client comes to the realization that we can help them, then we work together creating a win/win situation for all of us.
