Anyone use Headhunters?

Anyone use headhunters with any success?

Got my current job through a headhunter. I didn’t hire the firm though, they reached out to me on a cold call.

I’ve worked with some recruiters in the past, my company got bought out and they’re getting rid of my division. Now with having a new born my time is getting to the point I’d rather pay someone to work the job search for me if it’s worth the fee

33% of annual salary paid by employer. No cost for the candidate.


We use them when hiring. So far it has not paid off IMO.

If I was looking for a job I would consider using one.

What do you do for work? And I only charge 20% to the hiring company!!!!
We would never charge a candidate and you should never pay a recruiter if you are the one looking for a job.

I guessing it’s the first year annual salary only?

I own a commercial framing and drywall firm. The position is always estimators.

I have gotten a few HH down to 20%. However when we use GPAC its pretty firm 33%. So it really sucks to cut a 40K check for a guy to only leave you for more money 6 months later. The HH I use only replace within first 90 days.

The other issue is relocating guys that decide to go back to where they came from, after the 90 days.

Dang Man, 33% is pretty crazy. We charge 20-25% and do 18% on occasion and this is for high, in demand IT jobs over $100k.
