Do you have a flair for people and want to play an active role in shaping careers?
As a headhunter at Clearstone, you experience a new dimension of freedom.
You work independently, completely remotely with clients and candidates in your market segment.
Thanks to our Clearstone community, you are never alone! Over 40 other freelance recruitment consultants offer a network of experience and development opportunities.
The Clearstone back office supports you on your way to a successful career and takes care of the tedious tasks for you so that you can concentrate fully on recruiting. More time for you and the really important things!
Our headhunters cover 360° of the recruitment circle and therefore have the best possible overview of their area of specialization. Each headhunter is responsible for their own market segment. This prevents competition within our company and promotes cooperation between our partners. The segments are divided regionally and by specialist area.
Each area in which you see your specialization can therefore become your very own success story - both full-time and part-time, e.g. as a researcher.

We'll show you how to become a successful freelance headhunter for job seekers at Clearstone!
