Headhunter Gift?

I recently landed an analyst position at a small debt investment firm as my first gig out of college. My first interview was set up through a headhunter who contacted me about the position and also negotiated some of the terms of my eventual offer.

I'd like to hear your opinions on proper etiquette when working with headhunters as far as thank you notes/gifts? This is obviously the first time I've worked with a headhunter so I don't know what is standard in this situation.
