Just can’t find the right candidate to fill an open position at your company? Your problem is not uncommon. It may be time to consider using headhunters. What is a headhunter exactly? They are recruiting professionals that dedicate 100% of their time to sourcing and vetting top candidates to help companies fill vacant positions. There are many benefits to engaging headhunters to help fill a position. Here are 4 reasons why…

Generally, companies can’t just go out and poach the best talent from their competitors. Headhunters can. They have the resources and the know-how to attract even the most passive candidates. The best talent may take a little convincing to make them leave the job they are currently in and the best headhunters are trained to do just that.

When a company engages the services of headhunters, they can be confident that they will only see the best talent and there will be a low risk of a bad hire. This is because headhunters take the time to meticulously vet every candidate before presenting them to the hiring manager. By taking the time to qualify candidates based on the specifications of the company and taking culture fit into account, the risk of a bad hire drastically decreases.

Many companies have dedicated teams of human resources. A lot of the time, the HR department is busy with a multitude of things including payroll, implementation of culture, conflict resolutions, etc. They don’t have the time to dedicate themselves to solely sourcing and recruiting candidates. The great thing about headhunters is that they dedicate 100% of their time to recruiting. In turn, this means that generally, headhunters can produce a faster time-to-hire.

It is common that companies are reactionary in the sense that they only start to source candidates when there is a need to fil an open position. On the contrary, headhunters are always sourcing and connecting with top talent. This means that they have vast networks and can have a candidate ready to interview very quickly.
