Headhunters. I liked being one. Once I got the hang of it, and there was a great deal to learn, I really liked this job. I did it well. Well enough that after 3 1/2 years in that business, headhunting, executive search, recruiter, I was able to retire for nearly 10 years while in my early 30's. Well good for me, so what? I'll tell you so what...I liked being a headhunter and you should like, no you should love staying in great touch with a few. They can be your absolute best friends in the business world.

So, why should you love headhunters? (Good ones, and finding those is another story)

  • They can find you talent that will rocket your business into the highest reaches of the sky...talent that you would never find on your own.
  • They can tell you what you should pay to get the kind of person you need.
  • They can tell you the kind of person you need.
  • They can call you first, with your dream job, at your dream salary, at your dream location...as long as they know you, like you and trust you...and that is another story!

My next post will continue the headhunter stories...they are fun and I hope you already have a few headhunter friends...in the world economy we work in today...this is a must.

Bye for now...Jack
