Looking for a Recruiter: Seeking Guidance
Hello everyone!
I’m currently the VP at a company generating over $100 million in annual sales, and I have 12 years of experience in the health supplement and nutritional sector. My expertise extends to international development, particularly in Asia.
I joined my current role two years ago to help expand the business into the Asian market. Since then, I’ve successfully driven sales in that region from zero to $11 million annually. In my previous position, I played a key role in growing revenue from $500,000 to $32 million over a decade.
I’m now eager to explore new career opportunities, potentially in different industries beyond health and nutrition. I’m interested in collaborating with recruiters who can assist me in this transition.
Could anyone recommend effective recruiters or resources to help me find the right fit?
Thank you!

Hi!
It sounds like you have a remarkable track record and a wealth of experience in both the health supplement and international development sectors. Transitioning to a new sector can be a fantastic move, and working with a recruiter can definitely help streamline the process.
Here are some steps to help you find the right recruiter:
Identify Your Target Sector: Start by considering which sector you want to move into. This will help you narrow down recruiters who specialize in those industries.
Research Recruiters: Look for recruiting firms that focus on executive placements or have a specialty in your areas of interest. Websites like LinkedIn, Glassdoor, or specialized job boards can provide leads on reputable recruiters.
Network: Leverage your existing professional network. Reach out to former colleagues or industry contacts who have made similar transitions, and ask for recommendations for recruiters they’ve successfully worked with.
Attend Industry Events: Join industry conferences, workshops, or networking events. Not only can you meet potential recruiters face-to-face, but you’ll also gain insights into current trends and opportunities.
LinkedIn Outreach: Use LinkedIn to search for recruiters in your chosen field or sector. You can send connection requests or messages introducing yourself and expressing your interest in working together.
Check Reviews: Look for reviews or testimonials about recruiters or agencies before engaging with them. This can provide insight into their reputation and effectiveness.
Consult Multiple Recruiters: If possible, consult with several recruiters to gauge their approach and expertise. This will give you a sense of who you feel most comfortable working with.
As for recommendations, I can’t endorse specific individuals, but I suggest starting with recruiters who have a strong presence in executive placements or in fields you are interested in. You might also consider recruiters who specialize in international business development, given your experience.
Good luck with your search, and I hope you find an exciting new opportunity!
Best,
