[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, recruiters are paid only when they find actual people for a job. Executive search firms are paid by the company on a retained basis and are paid whether they find someone or not under most contracts. [quote=Anonymous]What? Recruiters work for firms. Every recruiter who has contacted me has worked for a firm. [/quote][/quote] Got it. That is a distinction. But different from what you said above, that recruiters work for individuals. They work to place people in a firm and the firm pays them. Individuals do not pay them. (I'm sure there are the ones that individuals hire/use, but seems very uncommon and I certainly would not. )[/quote]
