The recruiter handles the complete recruiting cycle for the company (attracting, sourcing, screening, interviewing and offering). The last two stages are completed in close liaison with the hiring manager. The recruiter may use headhunting skills (thorough research, networking, diligent targeting, etc.) to close certain senior level or unique/ new positions within a company.
A headhunter is also called an executive recruiter. They either work independently or as part of a recruitment agency. These highly skilled recruiters work with clients (i.e. companies) to source highly skilled, senior level or C-suite talent.
