Does anyone have any recruitment agents they'd recommend?

 

 

Linkedin. Do not pass go, go straight to linkedin.com, spruce up your
profile, and go to the advanced people search.

 

Seriously, it's all recruiters are using these days anyway:

sing_linked.php

http://humanresources.about.com/od/recruiting/a/recruit_linked.htm

 

So you can save yourself 10%-20% of the first 12 months salary for just one
day of focused scouring and the candidates you contact are going to get the
warm and fuzzy about you rather than rolling their eyes and wondering why we
haven't fixed this problem in the industry yet.
