Top VC headhunters (sequoia, accel, a16z)
Anyone know which headhunters top VCs in the valley use? Is it a different set from the usual PE roles? Specifically speaking to sequoia / accel / a16z / kleiner / etc. Thanks.

I’m an undergrad so take this with a grain of salt but know a lot of people recruiting VC and going the GE route myself.
Different VCs have different structures and styles of investing. a16z typically only hires ex-founders and early employees of highly successful startups (source: former Principal), while other firms do more formalized recruiting from Wall Street analyst and associate programs (most Insight associates who aren’t A2A promotes come from MBB or IB). You have to diligence the VCs you apply to and see how juniors fit into the picture if at all. Would be surprised if anyone except large GE/crossover funds uses headhunters but not wired into that scene.
