Does the university also pay the firm a fee or is it typically just the candidate? I ask because if the money is just coming from the candidates then the search firm may threaten to resign as they would not make any money form an outside candidate.
I always assumed search firms made money on both ends.
I mean this search firms is different from the ones I’m familiar with, because they’re serving a different niche. My guess would be that in this situation they make money on both ends. There are some search firms that only make money from the candidate end, I think most of those are lower end or entry-level job type firms, and others that make money on both ends. I don’t know which one this is.
