What is Executive Search?
Executive Search (also known as Headhunting) is a specialized recruitment service focused on identifying, attracting, and securing high-caliber professionals for senior-level and executive roles. Unlike general recruitment, executive search requires a targeted and proactive approach, tapping into passive candidate markets and leveraging deep industry networks.
At 9cv9, we go beyond resumes—we understand leadership DNA, corporate culture fit, and strategic business needs.
