WSO can we get an updated poll of active RE recruiters? I know there have been previous posts from yrs ago, but who is reaching out it you currently?
I’ve had Selby Jennings, Equity Search Partners, and ThinkingAhead so far this year.
In past posts (~5 yrs ago) I’ve seen RETS, Keller Augusta, Bell Cast, HSP, Glocap, DSP, CPI, SG Partners, and Terra Search. Curious to see who’s the most active currently. Thanks in advance!

Based on the most helpful WSO content, it's clear that the landscape of real estate (RE) headhunters is both dynamic and highly relevant to those seeking opportunities in the field. While I can't provide real-time updates or a poll of active RE recruiters for 2024, I can certainly reflect on the firms you've mentioned, drawing from the historical context provided.
From the context, firms like Selby Jennings, Equity Search Partners, and ThinkingAhead have been active recently, as you've noted. These firms, along with others mentioned such as RETS, Keller Augusta, Bell Cast, HSP, Glocap, DSP, CPI, SG Partners, and Terra Search, have been highlighted in past discussions for their roles in connecting talent with opportunities in the real estate sector.
It's worth noting that the activity level of these headhunters can vary based on several factors, including market demand, geographic focus, and their specific areas of expertise within the real estate sector. For instance, some may specialize more in commercial real estate roles, while others might focus on residential or real estate private equity positions.
For those looking to gauge the current activity level of these recruiters, a few strategies could be beneficial: - Networking: Engaging with industry professionals on platforms like LinkedIn or through real estate forums like WSO can provide insights into which headhunters are currently most active. - Direct Outreach: Contacting the firms directly or connecting with their representatives could offer the most up-to-date information on their current engagements and focus areas. - WSO Threads: Keeping an eye on recent threads and discussions within the WSO Real Estate Forum could also shed light on which recruiters are actively engaging with candidates and posting opportunities.
Remember, the effectiveness of a headhunter can also depend on your specific career goals, experience level, and the niche within the real estate market you're targeting. Engaging with a variety of recruiters and leveraging multiple job search strategies can often provide the best results in finding new opportunities.
