I found an incredible article titled Getting the Most From Your Relationship with a Contingency Search Firm, written by Bob Marshall, Recruitment Educator at Recruiter.com.
If you're a hiring manager (or you might be) keep this handy!
Like any successful relationship with a consultant, working with a contingency recruiter will be more productive when each party understands how the other works.
When choosing a recruiter, look for someone with a proven track record within your industry. This person will possess qualities such as intelligence, creativity, honesty, persistence, organizational skills and a sense of corporate maturity. They should also be good listeners and have an innate ability to "read" people.
