Executive Headhunter

As an executive headhunter, you find and recruit top leaders, like CEOs, vice presidents, and directors, for companies that need them. Day to day, you meet with clients to understand exactly what kind of leader they're looking for, then go hunting. You research industries, quietly reach out to talented people who often aren't even job hunting, and build relationships that might pay off months later. You screen candidates, run in-depth interviews, check references, and guide both sides through delicate salary and offer negotiations. Discretion is huge, since you're often dealing with people who don't want their current employer to know they're talking to you.
