From my perspective as a consultant to the executive search and recruiting industry, there is a trend taking shape, and if you don’t position yourself to be in front of it then you are going to lose out on potential opportunities. The third party recruiting landscape has changed forever. There will either be a high end/low end aspect to our business. You’ll be able to generate sizable profits when you either capitalize on a volume aspect or specialized aspect to our business. Ask yourself this question: How can I take advantage of the recent changes in our economy and use them to my firm’s advantage? By thinking this way you’ll be ahead of the curve and ahead of everyone else.
