To a recruiter, every individual is a potential candidate. And every candidate is different.

Each candidate is an individual with a different set of professional accomplishments, interests and needs. The goal of the recruiter is to make the "perfect match" -- linking your needs, interests and accomplishments to those of the hiring organization. But first you must know what it is about a job that would appeal to you, and what it is about you that will appeal to an employer.

A good recruiter can help you discover what those things are. But only by building an open and honest relationship with an executive recruiting professional who specializes in your industry, will you be able to test your true marketability and explore only the most appropriate professional opportunities when the time is right.
