You definitely would, except I don't think I would be able to handle placing all my friends into PE jobs without doing it myself. Not to mention after a few years you'd be placing kids younger than you into better jobs that you had.
Actually - I shouldn't generalize - anyone know what pay is like for a headhunter?
Headhunters get paid bank. I know a girl who does headhunting in the retail/fashion sector and they get 30% of total annual comp piad by the company. If you could do 3 or 4 placements a year and keep overhead low, you get make a nice annual.
Not exactly hour intensive either...
