What to know about Executive search firms
Executive search is a retained assignment to fill a small number of senior roles: a chief executive, a functional head, a country lead, a board director. The firm is paid to run a defined search whether or not you hire, which is the structural difference from contingency recruiting and the reason the two behave so differently. Because the fee does not depend on a placement, the firm can tell you that your specification is unrealistic, that the role is mispositioned, or that the strongest candidate withdrew for reasons you should hear.
