Headhunting

It's often the case that the strongest talent in market aren't actively seeking new opportunities. They aren't trawling through Seek or LinkedIn because they are highly focussed, self-aware... and as such they are strategically crafting and living their own specific career journey, without distractions of advertised role opportunities on the periphery. 

This is why it's important to consider headhunting as part of an approach to market when finding the right candidate for a role. Talent like this generally only hear about roles through their network. We are immersed in that network at Peeps. In fact over 80% of our recent successful placements have been candidates that were headhunted, not actively seeking or 'applying' as such. This talent use peeps as career consultants and advisors, trusting their view of the market and specific opportunities.

We know the talent, we know the roles - we know what will work in terms of making a placement.

Talent who are headhunted rarely have a CV, in fact they've often never  had one. Talent like this make their role moves on and up  because of their work, their relationships and their passion.
