You are entitled to high ball your expectations just as the company is entitled to reject them and low ball back if they find cheaper alternatives. At the end of the day, the professional way is to negotiate and see if can meet half way. If not, just politely inform the company you would like to disengage and move on. Take it in stride and learn to manage your emotions better next time. There is nothing wrong in negotiating for better pay, but going ballistic just because things don't go your way won't do you any good in the long run. Hope you learn something from this. |

The company is not interested in cheap talents from the budget they set and the prolonged interview process. Unless of course they duped the headhunter this way to get more candidates. |

anewbie | what happened after that day was that, the headhunter went back to explain things and got the same reply from the company. Basically they considered me a job hopper. That really baffled me as nothing I have done indicated that I am a job hopper. Every job candidate would like the highest pay. | |

The main reason is many agencies like Robert Walters, hays, Hudson, Michael page etc are falsely branding themselves as headhunters. This causes a lot of confusion as you end up with typical junior / middle professionals earning less than 500k get approached by all sorts of 'headhunters'. Real headhunters do not talk about stuff like salary budget, think long term for career, coordinate multiple meetings and candidates and openings at one go. Similarly most of their candidates are not in LinkedIn and randomly cold calling and messaging these execs will not work. It's a different world. |

recruiter used to be just "outsource HR" personnel who performed recruitment process headhunter does little of what a recruiter does, instead, focuses on building their network of contacts in an industry so that they can locate a good candidate. because of LinkedIn, a recruiter can easily build a network of contacts just like headhunter does, a headhunter is also required to perform HR function like screening and interviewing as a value-added service. how they get paid is usually subject to the contract, mostly a fixed monthly fee + commission. |

In this case, it's just a normal recruiting company hoping to get a cut of the candidate's salary as 'recommendation' fee. |

Unregistered | That's like saying personal banker and private banker is the same profession. Correct to a small extent, but the level of interaction and the whole hiring process is completely different. | |

Unregistered | Recruiter and head-hunter are just different words for the same profession. They only act in the interest of the company. salary negotiation is best done with the company directly. | |
