I couldn’t disagree more. In my experience I have found recruiters to be a complete waste of time (whether internal or external).

Recruiters are like Realtors.

The vast majority are crap. The really good ones are worth their weight in gold.

At some point "the good ones" are rare enough that it makes no difference if there are any "good ones" somewhere or not when your chances of finding one is ridiculously low.

I'm wondering, what can a recruiter do that would ever make them be worth their weight in gold?
