Many search firms have entry-level positions that are very generous (ranging from $45k - $65k) for research roles (finding candidates/information for the recruiters) or junior recruiting roles.
What recruiters are really looking for in other recruiters is, logically, the kind of person who would intuitively pick up the phone to find an answer to question. Do some homework on the industry and then, if you're really interested, send your resumes with a tailored cover letter to every single executive search firm and recruiting agency in your city. And then call them! One by one, everyday, until you get call backs from people agreeing to have an informational interview/cup of coffee with you. That's how you get it done, brothers. It's VERY doable because not that many people are that aggressive. Once you get past the fear, you realize there is an entire world out there waiting to be conquered.
There are the "executive search firms", which most of the clients are bulge bracket investment banks, top law firms, Fortune 500 companies, tech companies, with offices on every continent. These are companies like Spencer Stuart, Russell Reynolds, CT Partners, Heidrick & Struggles, etc.,
They also offer internships and a specific partner track. Starting salary is pretty good. Among these executive search firms you have boutiques like the Options Group (front office Wall St.) who are smaller and nimbler (not large publicly-traded companies) yet still global. Job openings are less frequent here as most hires are through internal referrals.
Then you have the recruiting agencies, like Michael Page International, Korn Ferry, Manpower, Solomon Page. They do "workforce solutions", like large scale staffing for contract jobs, temporary workers by the busload for large firms and big businesses.
They even outsource jobs and charge a % of the company's cost-savings as a fee. Look, there is a lot of business to be done in recruiting, Human Resources, organizational management. Human Capital is the future and will emerge as it's own behemoth of an industry in our lifetime - it is already starting to take shape. |

I'm often a big failure in unstructured social situations, but I've had sales jobs, and it's not so bad. There's a game to play and you play it. |
