Fun fact: Some of the most successful recruiters never planned to own a firm.
Take this episode's Headhunters LIVE guest, Dean Iacovetti.
Eight years ago, Dean was grinding it out as an internal recruiter when he realized something that changed everything: If he wanted to make real money in this business, he had to build his own empire.
Fast forward to today: His firm, Vanta Partners, crushes seven figures annually with just four people.
But here's what makes Dean different - he didn't just build another "submit and pray" recruiting firm.
Armed with a JD/MBA and a background in VC-backed hypergrowth companies, he saw the massive gap between what companies actually want from a recruiting partner and what most agencies deliver.
