Usually recruiters earn their money by working for one or more companies to help them fill any positions that are currently open. In this capacity, recruiters may have to screen and interview candidates. Sometimes recruiters work for employment firms on a contractual basis to help their clients find suitable employees. When you are working with a recruiter, you shouldn't be charged any fees to have them help you find a job. Instead, they are generally paid by the company that is doing the hiring.
On the other hand, headhunters often work only on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if they are able to find an acceptable employee for a company or organization. Since headhunters work on commission, they often have a greater incentive to find jobs for their clients than recruiters do. Headhunters can be paid either by the companies looking for employees or the job seeker looking for work. So don't be surprised if your headhunter asks for a placement fee when they successfully find you a job.
Recruiter: Usually the term used to describe someone who does full lifecyle meaning: sources, manages, and closes candidates, filling specific requisitions (job openings) or hiring to talent pipelines (e.g. full stack software engineers, ios engineers, product managers, etc.)Headhunter: This is sort of a legacy term but it can mean two things: usually is referring to a third party individual who is being retained by companies on a contractual basis for the purpose of filling a short term hiring need, some times even filling ONE particular position. If you're a candidate, you know when you're receiving an email from a headhunter because it says something like, "Come work for a great software company in Mountain View, a leader in the search engine space." Headhunters can be everything from low level third party vendors at companies to high level, executive search consultants hiring C-level individuals and board members. Take note, companies do NOT employ headhunters.
A headhunter is hired by firms to find talent, and to locate individuals who meet specific job requirements, it may be a corporation or an individual which is specialized in providing employment recruiting services. An individual who works to fill job openings in businesses or organizations is a recruiter. A recruiter's job includes reviewing candidate's job experiences, negotiating salaries, and placing candidates in agreeable employment positions. Recruiters typically receive a fee from the hiring employers.
Recruiters are there to basically fill jobs that a specific company has a vacant post to fill and normally they target active job seekers that directly apply to the advertised jobs or that post their CVs onto Boards and so on.
On the other hand Executive Search Agents or Head Hunters target specialized individuals with specific set of skills that are directly proportionate to the needs of their clients and this sometimes involves a direct approach to candidates whether they are actively searching for jobs or not. Normally Head Hunting is usually reserved for senior appointments, strategic hires and roles even though this can be done for most jobs.
