So this may be the wrong place to ask, but I’m curious if anyone has ever heard of headhunters that work for a candidate? Almost every recruiter and firm that I’ve seen only works on behalf of a company, or only cares if you match a role that they’re searching for.

I’ve always wondered if there are services were people will search on your behalf. Paid is fine as it is a pain now with everything being distilled down with AI.

    Twice I’ve had the real pleasure of this. A business had hired a headhunting firm, and I applied for that job. They did it so well thrt next time I wanted a job, I called up the guy from that headhunting firm and asked them to place me. They found a great match.
