Hello,does anyone have an opinion on them ? are they mass bombing CVs just like Huxley and other contingency-driven recruitment/HH firms, or are they more value-driven ?thx for sharing your experience with themT.

They are my favourite head hunters. Very selective, exceptional knowledge of the market, highly professional. So -- the complete opposite of Huxley

Come on Huxley can't be that bad, they're the preferred supplier at your very big bank.

Actually you are right, I haven't had any major issues with Huxley, so me jumping on Huxley bashing bandwagon was uncalled forBut they do have different operating modelsV

> Come on Huxley can't be that badI was once sent to the wrong address by Huxley for an interview with a fund in Pall Mall. I telephoned them (in a bad mood) to ask how they managed to send me to the wrong address. They checked, and then said 'sorry, its a computer problem with our database, can you hop on a tube?' ... that didn't improve my mood at the time. That said, I've met plenty of HHs from whom I would not buy a used car.
