Why some people are hiring a ‘reverse recruiter’ for their job search 

In a hyper-competitive job market, more candidates are turning to reverse recruiters for help finding opportunities. Is it right for you?

It’s a tough time to be a job seeker, whether you’re early in your career or looking for a leadership role. Mass layoffs continue to be rampant in industries like tech, media, and finance. Companies are posting “ghost jobs” where they advertise for positions they have no intention of filling. And when you do find roles that are suitable for you, you’re competing against large numbers of candidates—most of whom possess similar (or higher) levels of experience and qualifications.
