From Kirsten Bischoff, Opalesque New York:
While hiring came to a standstill (except at the most senior levels) during 2008 and much of 2009, 2010 can be described as a return to normalcy. Even better, many anticipate that 2011 will begin a period of growth and there will be more available positions across all areas of the industry.
This growth means more firms are back to using specialist recruiters. “Overall companies found out the hard way that a successful recruiters’ ability to hunt mid- to senior-level managers is not a skill that can easily be matched,” says Daniel Golyanov, Director at Carbon360. However, he cautions that the return to using recruiters still requires a certain amount of research on the part of employers. “There are no barriers to entry in recruiting, and firms looking to hire recruiters to fill specific spots need to research recruiters’ track record, experience and depth of industry knowledge.”
A number of recruitment firms recently shared their insight to the current hiring environment with Carbon360, which has just published its report, “Investment Fund Employment Trends in 2010”.
