How external recruiters can help

Internal human resources teams use a lot of web-based recruitment aids these days. From social sites to application tracking systems, generalists have a host of tools at their disposal. Many businesses ask HR personnel to perform mostly day-to-day administrative tasks, which means they have less time to spend on actual recruiting.

Conversely, third-party executive recruiters are committed to one goal: finding and placing talented c-level staff and other difficult-to-fill positions. As a result, many job hunters use such organizations instead of applying to countless positions via traditional channels. On the company-side this means external recruiters are often asked to help simply due to the internal workload and lack of time.

Quality over quantity
Organizations often judge internal recruitment teams based primarily on the number of positions they fill. On the other hand, for third-party recruitment consultants, success is directly tied to the caliber of the candidates they find, screen and successfully place. As a result, they are willing to invest more time in finding the RIGHT candidates and provide more holistic services. Though internal recruiters try to stick to such standards, their often volume-based performance metrics won't allow it.

Full-time focus
Third-party executive search consultants aren't weighed down by administrative duties like most internal HR generalists. This leaves them time to focus on the needs of their clients and work closely with them to find the most suitable candidates. Additionally, recruiters often maintain relationships with their candidates after they find placements. As a result, many job hunters use the same executive search consultants throughout their entire career. And, most external recruiters know when employees are looking for new opportunities.

Third-party search firms like YES Partners work with many company-internal recruiters and HR departments, primarily helping them with those difficult-to-fill and many confidential searches.
