This chapter overviews the work of contingency headhunters, who earn a fee from a client company when a candidate they have identified and presented is hired. It begins by describing the financial footing of the industry and the three central activities of headhunting: establishing business relationships with client companies, identifying and presenting candidates for positions, and facilitating encounters between clients and candidates. A second section explores how headhunters provide insights into who is on the market for a new job, who fits a job well, and who appears to fit a job well. In

Economic liberalization and globalization in India in the early 1990s resulted in a whirlwind of consumerist activities.
