I've been wondering about this lately, as I'm unhappily employed but don't want Indeed to be the only place I window shop.

The challenge is, I'm not really sure what to look for in terms of "good" recruiters. Based on your recent experience, do you have any tips or advice you'd be willing to offer?

Watch out for small new recruiting firms trying to take advantage of the market, good chance without reputation/experience they won’t get people hired. Stick with established places/people with good reviews (probably on the hell that is LinkedIn)
