Recruiters and headhunters are not the same. 
It’s important you understand the difference. 
Recruiters fill openings… 




They chase active candidates.
The ones replying to LinkedIn messages, scrolling job boards, and sending out CVs.
It’s a volume game.

Fast, transactional, and surface-level.

Headhunters build pipelines.

We chase the best people who don’t show up on the market. 
The ones too busy succeeding to be looking.
The top 10% performers who take ten phone calls before they’ll even have a conversation.

It’s slower. Harder.
But it’s the difference between hiring the best talent IN versus ON the market.

Why does this matter for your business?

Lower attrition rates.

When someone leaves a job they're happy and successful in to join a direct competitor, 
They're far more likely to stay long-term.

Better cultural fit.

These candidates aren't desperately job hunting. They are selective about where they land, which means they choose companies that align with their values.

Higher performance.

The best salespeople, engineers, and leaders are already proving it somewhere else. That’s who you want walking into your Monday meeting.

The recruiting industry has earned its bad reputation for all the right reasons.

But when you work with someone who actually understands headhunting,
Someone who gets you the otherwise unattainable candidates, from direct competitors
Your experience will be completely different.
Delivering candidates who didn’t even know they were open to moving is what a headhunter will do.

That’s when your hiring process transforms… 

From hoping to fill a role with someone decent, 
To choosing between multiple A-players.

The kind that changes what’s possible for your company.

Client: “Chris, we need someone in 2 weeks” 
Me: “No, that won’t work” 
Client: “Why the hell not?” 

Every new client tells me the same thing: 

"We need someone fast."

Then six months later, they're back on the market. 

Because "fast" gave them the wrong person.

Here's what actually happens when you optimize for speed:

You get 10 candidates who barely match the brief. 
You interview 3 out of desperation. 
You hire 1 because the recruiter's pushing hard and you're out of options. 
Then the candidate leaves in 4 months because it was never the right fit.

The recruiter got paid. You got a gap to fill all over again.

I had a client come to me after exactly this situation. 

They'd worked with three different firms in 18 months. 

All promised speed. None delivered someone who lasted.

When we started working together, I told them upfront: 

"This will take longer than you want. 
But you'll get at least 5 candidates in 5 business days, will want to interview them all, and one of them will actually stay."

They pushed back. "We need someone in two weeks."

I said no and advised them on the process they should follow to secure a long-term fit

Two months later, they hired someone who's still there two years on. 
Because we took time to understand what they actually needed, not just what the job spec said.

Here's what I've learned: clients don't actually want fast. They want certainty. They want to know the person they hire won't be a mistake they're fixing six months from now.

Speed feels like certainty. But it's not when quality is sacrificed

Real certainty takes time. 

It means understanding how someone will fit your team, not just their CV. 

It means saying no to candidates who look good on paper but won't last.

Most recruitment firms won't tell you this because it's not what you want to hear

But it's what you need to hear if you're tired of rehiring the same role every year.

This CRO spent $1.2M on 4 recruitment firms 
The role was open for 12 months 
They hired us, and it was filled in 45 days. 


When this client called me, he was understandably frustrated.

After all that time, and all those recruitment partners,
They didn’t have a single viable candidate to show for it.

But that wasn’t the part that shocked me…
It was the lack of data.

Not one of those firms had provided:

Market salary benchmarks
Competitor intelligence
Or any talent availability analysis.

Just a steady stream of “rockstar” CVs that didn’t fit.

So before sending a single resume,
We built a complete market analysis:

Salary ranges across direct competitors
Talent mapping by region
Success rate projections and hiring timelines

Within five business days, we had five viable candidates.
By day 45, the role was filled.

If your recruiting partner can’t provide hard data on compensation, availability, and hiring trends…
Then they aren’t acting in your best interests as a strategic partner.

Lately, every CRO I speak to says the same thing:
“We’ve been burned by recruiters before.”
And they’re right to feel that way.



Too many firms promise quality candidates and instead deliver whoever replied to a LinkedIn message.

One CRO I spoke with put it to me this way:

“Chris, I don’t need more resumes. I need the right people. 
And I need to know where they’re coming from.”

I thought about it for a while after.

Because it’s exactly what separates true search partners from order-takers.

Here’s what the best CROs ask before they sign with a firm:

→ Where will these candidates come from (active job seekers or truly passive talent)?
→ How do you qualify them on compensation expectations and quota attainment?
→ What’s your interview-to-submittal ratio for similar searches?
→ Can you walk me through your last 3 placements in this space?

If a firm CAN’T answer those questions with data and specifics, you won’t be working with a search partner.

They’re a service vendor.
And you’ll feel the difference fast.

Here’s something else to keep in mind…

Most firms send one or two resumes and hope something sticks.

A true headhunter delivers 4-5 fully qualified candidates, 
And you’ll want to interview every one of them.

Because beyond matching keywords on a CV.
They’re actually assessing fit, culture, and long-term impact.

And that’s where real headhunting earns its name.

Fast hires fill seats.
Right hires build companies.

My best clients are always hiring.
Even when there’s no open role.
Especially in aerospace & defense, things change fast:


A key engineer gets poached
A program manager moves on
A lead relocates overnight

And suddenly it’s: “We needed someone yesterday.”

If you only start hiring when there’s a gap,
You’re already 6 months behind.

The strongest teams don’t wait for vacancies.
They build relationships before they need them.

So when change hits (and it always does)…
They don’t go to the market.

They make one call.

And surprise, surprise…

They’ve already got top talent ready to say yes.
