You Mean You NEVER Met the Candidate?
By: Frank Risalvato

Unless you work exclusively on mid-six figure executive searches and are always paid a retainer and travel expenses -- your probably one of thousands of recruiters that often refers candidates without actually meeting the candidate in a face-to-face situation.

You've probably heard the statement "You mean you never met the candidate" from a client more than once.

I recall the first time in my recruiting career that I was confronted with this shocked reaction by a large company client I had just signed on. The tone used in discussing this matter with me seemed to indicate I should have felt as if I had "cheated" or done something naughty.
