When I tell people I run a retained search firm, I usually get the same confused look—like I just said I build time machines. Even my mom doesn’t totally get it (love you, Mom).
So in this episode of Hire Power, I’m breaking down the truth about retained search vs. contingency recruiting—what they are, how they’re different, what they cost, and why the one you choose really matters if you're serious about hiring the right person.
Spoiler alert: it's not about flooding your inbox with resumes. It’s about strategy, consistency, and outcomes.
In this episode:
- What retained search actually means
- Why contingency recruiting often becomes a resume race
- Common misconceptions around cost and exclusivity
- The real difference in candidate quality and process
- Why high-impact roles need a different level of support
- What your choice of search firm says about your brand
Bottom line: If you’re hiring someone critical to your business, culture, or growth—you can’t afford to get it wrong. Don’t just post and pray. Do it right from the beginning.
