Job profile – Headhunter

Similar to Recruitment Executives, Headhunters work to connect top talent to a company hiring for their skill set. They are a critical link between employers and employees, and must have a broad skill set in order to be successful. Tasks of a Headhunter may include drafting job openings to post online, using social media to find recruits and reaching out for an initial interview. Other tasks may include routine office work, managing databases of potential clients, and maintaining records. Prior experience as a Recruitment Trainee will assist you in this role, or as a Personal Assistant where you worked in close contact with company decision makers.
