Octavius Finance - recruiter
Anybody have experience with these guys? Do they have real opps? Don't want to be wasting my time with guys who don't have anything worthwhile and just want your CV

I see their listings online occasionally for London openings, seem to be a legit place although only had a very brief discussion with them as they don't seem to be that active in my particular space.
Avoid. Absolute rubbish, don't have real relationships and some of the most unprofessional recruiters I've come across.
Do you know anything about Hunter Bond as well? Seems like they constantly have so many ads online on linkedin etc and try to grab your attention with attractive comp numbers in the headline... not sure how legit they are.
No exp with Hunter. Are they a subsidiary? You have to be careful because recruitment firms sometimes operate using different names in different countries. I would generally avoid any place that advertises comp numbers like '400k+'
One good test is to dig a bit deeper when they call on what fund clients they have and whether they know specific groups/PMs there.
A couple of red flags is if they call you randomly without making an appointment, multiple agents call you, they start asking about your fund's performance and whether you have any strategies.
What type of roles are you looking for and is this for US or UK?
They seem always to have a variety of roles in the UK and US, seems to good to be true...
Any HH you recommend for HF?
I can confirm that these people are a joke. The recruiter asked rather stupid questions and didn't have answers nor a job spec. Both clearly the hallmarks of an inexperienced recruiter - something you wouldn't expect from someone tasked with filling a 300K+ a year role. I suspect that they use CV's as a prospecting list or they try to pry the door open with a client they have no relationship with using your CV as a lure. I'd avoid.
