Navigating Agency Recruiters and Headhunters

About 10% to 20% of all jobs are found via external recruiters and headhunters. There will be a panel discussion composed of agency recruiters telling you how to work effectively with them. Usually, there will be 3 to 4 recruiters at these sessions. Most of the time, these sessions will have a breakout period where each recruiter will work with a smaller group of attendees.

After a recent recruiter's panel 1/3 of the attendees got job interviews with one or more of the panelists. Thus, everyone will leave with a good understanding of how to work with external recruiters and headhunters.
