Usually it is their job to find candidates fro their clients that fit, and that is part and parcel, with a fee paid from the employer.

tomorrow night is a job networking event in Mesa where engineers and<br>
managers from several companies that are hiring will show up.<br>
<br>
Also, Tucker will be there. He's HR rather than headhunter, but he's<br>
pretty plugged in on the proprietary side.<br>

It's before Stammtisch at 18:00.<br>
