Emphasizing this point for others. This is the best way to approach it IMO.
The company should work to impress you as much as you work to impress them.

- treeman79 6y agoGot a call from a recruiter that was looking for an oddly specific combination of skills. Me, so it’s Company X? He was flabbergasted. I gave 3 months notice. I was literally the only person in the world with that combination of skills. So I asked how much, went to bosses, I’ll stay on longer if you pay me that rate. Good money for a few months.

- treeman79 6y agoObscure mainframe tech and ruby, VB. About 15 years ago.
- Ruthalas 6y agoI suppose that speaks positively of the recruiter's ability to find the right person for the job!
- o-__-o 6y agoThis. I got headhunted for a very very specific skill in my city. Asked them if it was company X? “How did you know??” “I wrote that rec”. I then proceeded to work directly with the recruiter to find a candidate and got an easy $1000 for about 4 hours of total work.
