Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between executive search and recruitment?

Executive search generally focuses on senior or strategically important appointments, often involving targeted outreach to candidates who are not actively applying. Recruitment services may cover a wider range of roles and sourcing methods.

Ask each firm how it defines the service and whether its approach fits the seniority and confidentiality of your vacancy.

Which firms can help with specialist hiring?

Quadruped Rekrytering is specifically associated with specialist hiring in Sweden or international markets. Other firms may also be relevant, but their profiles here are centred on executive search or recruiter services.

Describe the technical or sector requirements clearly so the proposed search matches the difficulty of the role.

Can a Stockholm headhunter recruit internationally?

International reach varies by firm and assignment. The available selection includes a specialist hiring option explicitly connected with Swedish or international markets, while other firms should be assessed directly for cross-border capability.

Confirm target countries, language coverage, candidate outreach, and local employment considerations before engagement.

What should I ask before hiring a headhunting firm?

Ask about relevant assignments, the people who will conduct the search, expected communication, candidate assessment, and the markets included. It is also useful to clarify how confidential searches are managed.

Request a clear outline of scope and deliverables, without relying on assumptions about sector expertise or international coverage.
