It’s been a long time coming, but finally job boards are quickly becoming more or less obsolete. While job boards such as CareerBuilder and Monster offer wide exposure and easy access to candidates, companies looking to fill high-level or specialized roles often find greater success with a headhunter. Unlike general job boards, headhunters provide industry-specific expertise, faster turnaround times, and access to top-tier passive candidates who aren’t actively applying online. This is who you need to target, and who we target at Cornerstone Recruiting.
Headhunters take a targeted approach, using their networks and market knowledge to identify professionals who match a role both in skills and cultural fit. They streamline the hiring process by pre-screening applicants, managing outreach, and guiding negotiations. This results in higher-quality hires and reduces the time and effort spent sifting through unqualified resumes.
