Summary Analysis:
Executive search firms are markedly more confident in the executive employment market than they were earlier this year, and now, for the first time in months, ExecuNet's benchmark Search Firm Hiring Index reveals more of them plan to bulk up their own staff.
ExecuNet's October survey of 172 executive recruiters revealed that 15 percent of them plan to add professional staff in the next three months, up from 11 percent in September and the highest number since roughly 18 percent of responding search firms planned to add staff last December.
"This job search is very different from the one I managed four years ago. I appreciate the heads up about "responses." It was good to be reminded about the current state of the job search process."
