At Rudd Executive Search, we respect that your career is important to you. When you share information with us, it is treated as highly confidential. Your resume will never be sent out without us obtaining your express consent.
Many of the positions we fill are never advertised and we are the exclusive agent of the employer. It may be a confidential search, or it may be that we are targeting a specific group of people. If you are not in our database or known to us in some other way, you may never have the opportunity to raise your hand.

Why return the recruiter’s call?
Maintain visibility and network now for the future.
The best positions are never advertised. Many positions are filled by ‘who you know’ rather than by advertising. You will never know about the best opportunities unless someone knows that you are out there. That means that we need to be able to find you.
Many clients have us work on confidential searches that we cannot advertise. In addition, when we meet an exceptional candidate, we can call on our clients to see if there is any interest.
If a recruiter calls, invest a few minutes of time to decide if an opportunity is right for you and if the recruiter is someone you may want to know for the future. Being in a recruiter’s database means you will hear about opportunities and have the choice to pursue or not.
You are in charge of your career.
Most employment is “at will” and there is no long term guarantees of employment. Whether your next move is with your current employer or someone new - you are responsible for your career, that means that you need to stay marketable, stay on top of current technology and trends, always be learning, getting certifications or maybe a degree, understand how what you do adds value to your employer.
We know your are busy working and you don’t have time to think about ‘building your network’ but if you wait until you need it, it is too late. An easy way of building your network is to be known by a recruiter in your industry. We are out there everyday building our network. Being known by a headhunter who specializes in your industry increases the odds of your being presented an opportunity that you would never find on your own.
One way to maintain visibility is to get into a headhunter’s database.
When starting a new assignment, most recruiters will first go through their database to find potential candidates. This is why a recruiter is always building their database.
To get into a recruiter’s database, you want to become visible.
Why do recruiter’s ask for referrals?
We present opportunities to people. We don’t expect everyone we contact to be qualified and/or interested in the opportunity but we do hope to help people advance in their careers. We can’t present an opportunity if we don’t know about you or your associates.
If we contact you and you are not interested in an opportunity, please consider referring a friend or colleague.
People are hesitant to give referrals. Everyone has had experiences with annoying phone calls and don’t want to the source of a friend’s or associate’s ire and that is why we can assure you that we handle all these calls professionally. By referring someone, you give them the opportunity to potentially advance in their career by introducing them to a recruiter in their field. All referrals are handled with discretion.
We respect people’s careers. We respect their confidentiality.
What about Job Boards?
Job boards can be a very useful tool for jobseekers and employers alike BUT be wary of posting your resume online. Many companies subscribe to the resume databases and search those databases for potential employees but also, some will put in their own company name to see whose resume comes up. It may be your employer looking at your resume
