No one can help you in holding a good job except Old Man You.
Edgar Watson Howe

Executive search firms need a good resume from you, but they also must have a search assignment that matches your background before they can be of service. Headhunters do not market you. They find the best candidates for client job openings. Their clients are companies that pay their fee or retainer. Don't expect a headhunter to make you her number one marketing project. Conducting your search campaign isn't her job, it's yours.

Two can live as cheaply as one - if they both have good jobs.
Laurence Peter
