Last year we spent $562,500 on headhunters for our 15 most senior, niche or confidential roles. We didn’t retain any
significant market data or relationships with key people in the external market.
This year with the same demand we can save 73% on costs by hiring an internal headhunter for $150,000 and retain a
significant amount of market data and competitor org chart information that we can make further future hires from.
