Headhunter Question
Are candidates allowed to work with more than one headhunter? So let’s say you are working with one headhunter firm but they do not cover one of the PE firms you are interested in, can you simultaneously work with another headhunter firm?
Absolutely not but you should be forthcoming if asked and not have the same job spec come up through 2 different recruiters. All about trust and presentation. They will get annoyed and most likely stop working with you.
If there's a specialty type for specific firms I personally only use one for that segment (for me its a top tier buyside type role)
I’ve done this. It’s a lot to manage on your end
Based on the most helpful WSO content, it's not uncommon for candidates to work with multiple headhunters. This can be beneficial as different headhunters may have connections with different firms, expanding your potential opportunities. However, it's crucial to maintain clear communication with all parties involved to avoid any potential conflicts or misunderstandings. For instance, you wouldn't want two headhunters sending your resume to the same firm. So, yes, you can work with more than one headhunter, but manage the process carefully.
