As a Human Resource professional, I often get the question from job seekers: Should I work with a head hunting firm to land the job of my dreams? As with many questions, the answer is: "It depends".

If you are a recent graduate, looking to land a competitive job, the head hunting firms may not be the best option. This is because the good headhunting firms typically work with hundreds or thousands of candidates. As a less experienced candidate you will be at a disadvantage. The odds are more in your favor, when you choose a top rated local job site (http://www.rozee.pk/Articles/jobs-pakistan.php ).

The head hunting companies typically turn to the job sites in order to increase their pool of qualified candidates and are often the largest clients of the career sites.

Why use a headhunting firm in the first place? Let's face it. The head hunting, or executive search firms are paid by well heeled client companies looking to find highly qualified people for specific openings. Typically the hiring companies use more traditional routes such as career sites to find the bulk of the candidates. For specialized candidate searches, however, they want to outsource part of the hiring and screening process to executive search firms.

The well run headhunter firms, such as Korea Headhunter , follow a well defined process in order to ensure efficiency and results. The process typically includes a questionnaire for the employer to efficiently select the appropriate candidates. The head hunter firms, on approval of the hiring firm, conduct a prequalification interview. Ideally, the candidates have already been screen for qualifications and personality.

The short listed clients from such a process are then passed off to the client firms for a direct interview. Once the employer determines the suitability of the employee, and there is mutual agreement between the candidates as well as the client of the headhunter, the headhunter normally gets compensated for the services rendered.

These head hunting firms add further value by nurturing relationships with the qualified and difficult to find executives. Often, these relationships span months and years and they are maintained, even after the executive has been placed.
