AP here. Haven’t looked for a job in many years - planning to exit. How do you go about job search (e.g., how do I get in touch with relevant recruiters) . Don’t plan to formally declare search for a couple of months so wont be engaging sponsors for introductions yet

Honestly, the best way is to engage sponsors or your network at the firm. You can tell the ones that are closest to you, and you trust, that you are considering the market outside and want to test waters, even though you are not convinced to leave yet.

At the AP level, the usual route of applying for open positions through LinkedIn is not a great way – – you won’t find positions at the right level that give you the pay bump you are likely looking for, using that route. And I found the head hunters, like Charles Aris, and Russell Reynolds, useless. They were pushing me to take junior/ EM exit roles saying the market is very tight and I should settle for lower comp than I currently make, and I was not willing to do that.

I just wrapped up my exit as a tenured, AP, starting something new. Feel free to DM if you have specific questions.

Today I learned a new thing. One candidate was referred by a colleague of mine in the system. He got selected and offer letter rolled out.

When he checked the system he realized the referral was not taken and the background system captured it as direct hire.

So my friend is not going to get any referral incentive.

Wondering if anyone else faced the same issue?
