Executive recruiter reached out about a role via linkedin, I scheduled a call for a few days later. During that time, an internal recruiter for a company called me and told me about an opportunity, and sent some details. When I spoke with the exec recruiter I learned it was for the same role.

Who should I continue the process with? Technically the exec recruiter got to me first, but I learned the details about the role from the internal recruiter first

Hmm. Usually the external bails out when they find that an internal is involved.

But an external gets their comp based around how much you are paid. So it is in their best interest to get you the highest number

My experience is that their isn’t a ton of interaction between the two. In my org the BU’s hire the recruiter when HR isn’t getting us what we need

I'd go with internal recruiter and politely let the other person know. He would anyways not get his commission given you have already been contacted.

Maybe. But you're overthinking this? Just let both of them know about the other person and let them figure out who needs to drop it.

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

Even if an offer doesn’t come from it, is it weird if I send him a Starbucks gift card or something as a thank you? What’s appropriate?
