|
As a headhunter you will deal with the HR department. Get to know those who matter. |
|
Research the company and its requirements |
|
A smart headhunter should short-circuit any long drawn out process: he can go directly to the only person who counts, the manager, who will make the final decision. |
|
Ability to ensure a “sure fit”. Sending in wrong candidates can damage your reputation. |
|
Word of mouth publicity is what you need, so make sure you get it! |
The hunted.

As a headhunter, you will need to first sift the grain from the chaff when it comes to job-seekers. |
|
Verify credentials and their authenticity |
|
You will have to fine tune the job seekers resumes, and discard some if necessary |

Maintain a database of job seekers, based on their abilities / experience / job descriptions / city specific. |

|
Prepare candidates for job interviews |
|
Remember as a headhunter, you don't always look only for people who are searching for jobs. A good headhunter will also earmark candidates who are secure and happy in their jobs. But, these people may not be averse to change / better offer / advancing their career if opportunities arise.
