Imagine you have paid for a very expensive safari to Africa, you have been promised to be shown the “King of the Jungle” in his natural setting, hunting real food. To your dismay the first outing results in the game keeper throwing a lump of meat just a mile or so from the camp in a very well-trodden area. Out plods a very fat, very lazy Lion that has not run anywhere or killed for some time. The rest of the trip continues in the same routine for various other “illustrious” creatures. Are you feeling let down and ripped off!?
As dismal as it sounds this is how most companies attempt to recruit senior members to their organisation. Posting a job advert is like throwing a lump of meat out to see what turns up. Precious company time is spent trawling through CV’s, trying desperately to read between the lines to see if this is an Apex predator or just someone who felt your valuable time is worth a sniff. You were expecting an influx of prime top quality candidates who were just waiting for your company to announce that it was now hiring, all that’s turned up is a very fat lion and a few flies!
Common sense would ensure you hired an expert tracker that knows the Lions, the landscape and the prey like the back of his hand, maybe even making you aware of a very rarely seen Black Mained young Lion. Taking you on a journey of self-discovery, enlightenment and ultimately the discovery of the best possible specimen in all the land. In times past to bag a trophy like this would be a life changing experience.
In business the best companies employ the services of a retained Headhunter and the results are equally rewarding in the short-term but the long-term effects can make the difference between survival or failure of your company.
So the big question is are you going to hire the expert who will hunt for the very best candidate who is focused and working hard making money for his existing company or will you take what comes along?

We've had a very bad experience with headhunters before. Not sure I'd recommend it.

Us too. From how I see it, the truly reputable headhunters would have people ready under them already. They already have a database of resumes that they could tap into for your requirements.

We prefer to recruit personally, even for higher management posts. I think it's not a good idea to go covert when you're hiring a manager or executive.

I think that headhunters can be an advantage if you don't want people to know you're hiring key personnel. But do your homework. I wouldn't trust an inexperienced headhunter, nor one whose reputations is unknown to me. If you need to hire one, get recommendations from other HR professionals.
