Large Internationally Active Executive Recruiters and Headhunters

Starting an international career is not an easy task. Unless you have lived abroad as a child with your parents, you are entering new territory. Although, many international job applicants tend to move almost exclusively within their expatriate circles in their guest country, the most successful ones moved in "international circles", meaning they establish contact with the population of their guest country, outside their work place. Getting an overseas job and making a long term career, will depend on how successful you are with that. International recruiters can help you somewhat in that. Though, much of it is up to you and to your family and how they adapt to the new circumstances.

But please do not approach headhunters with high school or even college (unless you have spent one or two years living, working or studying in the language area) level skills. They will not be interested. You should also have several years of experience. Ten years post qualification, plus around five years in the particular field, in which you look for a job, is a good background,

The Retained Executive Recruiter is paid by the employer. And, remember the fees the potential employer pays are high, usually around 30% of the total annual remuneration of the recruited candidate. The stake in the reputation of the headhunter, if an appointment fails to perform, is therefore also high and they are not going to experiment. However, once you have established a successful relationship with an international recruiter, it is likely to be a rewarding experience in more sense then one.

The Need for an Outstandingly Written and presented Resume or Curriculum Vitae

If you want to approach some of the worlds top executive recruiters for your job search, then you require an outstanding, well written and well presented resume or Curriculum Vitae. There is no use in writing an American style resume, for a job located in Europe. In the same way as there is little chance, that a European Curriculum Vitae will be read by an American human resource manager, or an executive recruiter based in the States. You have to present the right format in the right place, to have a reasonable chance of success.

There are numerous good resume writing services available to help you create the right format. You can find some of the ones we have tested at our Resume Advise Page . They vary in price and you get what you pay for!

You should also be aware that many of the top executive recruiters will, often, not accept unsolicited résumé's/CV's.
