"headhunters OR executive search firm AND Washington, D.C. AND financial services" Feldman 1. asks clients to name places he or she might like to work 2. then she hunts down the right hiring person by such tactics as scouring articles, press releases and SEC documents. 3. phones the company, introducing herself as a management consultant or as a "personal job search agent". (Another client was interested in working for famously secretive Tootsie Roll Industries. Feldman read about a company that rented trucks to the candy manufacturer. She called the trucking company, asked for the name of Tootsie Rolls purchasing director and called the director to find out who in operations was in charge of hiring.) People return calls because they did perceive her to be a desperate job seeker. She searches Dun and Bradstreet Reports and Hoovers Online for privately owned manufacturers with less than $300 million in sales. She came up with 75 companies which her client will narrow to about 20. She: · describes herself as a management consultant who knows a qualified person. · made the pitch for her client. He then took over the search. · has been paid $11,000 to find out the right hiring contacts at a company because he found it hard to call companies about job openings. · markets herself as a hired gun networker for $150,000 a year plus executives who lack connections and are just too busy or uncomfortable to find a job. Job hunters pay her as much as $20,000 depending on how many weeks they want to work for her. Many opt for 8 weeks at $15-$20 thousand. She never guarantees anyone a job, but only promises to introduce clients to managers who can hire them or she refers them to unadvertised opportunities. http://www.thejobspider.com/ http://www.jobvertise.com/ http://www.employment911.com/asp/JobSeekersEnter.asp http://www.jobtoaster.com/searchseekers.asp
