To search this page for a search firm that works in your industry, use the Control-F command to open a Keyword Find for this page, then type in the word you want, like "packaging" or "healthcare".

Please remember that recruiters work for the employers who have hired them, not for you. They do not work to help you find a job. They work to help their client successfully fill a position. While they appreciate hearing from you and about you, do not expect to hear from them unless you fit a search profile they are currently pursuing. Please review the articles under Working with Recruiters & Search Firms for more information on recruiters and how they work.

Quick Tip from a Search Consultant: Your resume might be retained by a firm for as long as two or three years, so create and keep an active email account for the long-term and check it every week or two. A free Yahoo! mail or Google Mail account can be one of your best investments. Also consider keeping that mobile phone number that you put on your resume, even if your relocation takes you to a different part of the country.

How to Work with Headhunters, Nick Corcodilos

This book is one of the best I've read in a long time, including some of my favorite fiction. How to Work with Headhunters by Nick Corcodilos of AskTheHeadhunter.com answers every question you have about recruiters and recruiting in simple terms, adding in his terrific "Insider's edge" commentary from his own personal experience as a headhunter. And, for all of us who just can't find the right words at the right moment when talking with a recruiter, he provides you with the exact question or suggestion you need to make in response to a particular situation. (No, you shouldn't take them verbatim from the book, but now that you know the idea you can use your own words. Nick's book is not available in stores (but only through this exclusive TV offer...). Joking! It's available for purchase from his website, AskTheHeadhunter.com. It's a downloadable PDF file, so you pay the fee and put the PDF on your computer. Then you can either read it online or print a copy to carry around and highlight in yellow, orange, pink, or green, or any combination of these. If you really want to know the best way to interact with recruiters and headhunters, this is a must-read for you!

The Hunt for Top Talent: 11 Questions to Ask Prospective Search Firms, Walter U. Baker, Signium International (TopEmploymentGuide.com)

"Have you identified the need to fill a critical executive level position…one that will play a key role in facilitating your strategic business objectives?

What You Should Know About Recruiters, Ralph Protsik, Managing Director, BSG TeamVentures / Boston Search Group, Inc.

"At some point in your career -- probably sooner rather than later -- you will be dealing with recruiters (a/k/a headhunters). You may be looking for a new position (actively or passively) or you may be hiring; in some cases you may be doing both at the same time. In any event you'll find a basic knowledge of recruiters valuable as you manage your career." This is an excellent article written by the managing director of a retained search firm. It discusses the activities of both contingency and retained recruiters, how to evaluate their strengths, and how to build a good relationship with them. This article is featured on TopEmploymentGuide.com.

Tips to Gain Instant Credibility with Recruiters and Employers, Louise Garver (careerdirectionsllc.com)

"The Internet has dramatically changed how job searches are conducted. With the click of a mouse, you can distribute your resume to thousands of employers and search firms.

And with that, she discusses the best ways to connect with the recruiters and employers, starting with the idea of not applying for every job you see.

Why Don't Recruiters Respond?, Rita Ashley (JobSearchDebugged.com)

"How Rude! You sent in a resume, wrote a great cover letter and you know you are spot on for the posted job. So what’s up with the dead air?" Rita's response: "If you want your recruiter to behave, be selective in how you approach her and by whom you are referred." She also outlines several common reasons why you don't hear from them, some of which fall back to you and some of which legitimately fall on the recruiter. Rita Ashley is a former tech recruiter now working as a job search coach, and she has some excellent ideas on job search and career management.

A Short List of Search Firms

A B C | D E F | G H I | J K L | M N O | P Q R | S T U | V W X Y Z

This is a short list of executive search firms and services to whom you might submit a resume for consideration in their many searches. Some will post information about current searches so you can direct your response appropriately, but many won't. They are also quite selective about who they will and won't consider as a candidate for a position.

This is by no means a full list. Some search firms who specialize in a particular industry or occupational field are listed under the appropriate category within Sites with Job Listings. We also have some job banks which specialize in director to executive-level candidates within the general job banks and on our page for the Executive Job Search. And, if you don't see firms that fit your profile, you can always use the Directories of Recruiting Firms to create your own contact list.
