Retained vs. Contingent Search: What’s the Difference?
Retained search and contingent search are the two main models executive recruiters use to fill open roles. In retained search, the client pays an upfront fee to engage the firm, a commitment that earns the role dedicated priority, the firm’s deep industry-specific network of vetted candidates, and a higher level of service. In contingent search, the client only pays if one of them makes a placement; however, the approach tends to be less targeted.
