I've found this forum incredibly useful in just a short space of time already, for the wealth of knowledge but in also in helping me finally cross that line from interested to committed - so I want to give something back.

I'm just beginning down the entrepreneurial path, however I am a veteran recruiter (by the standards of how long people typically last in this industry, at least). I've been in the game for six years, delivered searches as varied as sales managers for VC-funded startups, through engineers with extremely rare skills to C-level execs for pharmaceutical companies & oil and gas multinationals.

As with building a business it's all about the process...from defining the actual job, to finding the people you need without relying on ads or the internet, getting their interest, evaluating and selling to them correctly, getting them excited to say yes to the offer even if they didn't want to talk to you initially.

Anything you want to know - ask away.
