Registration, qualified membership and network partnership are related—but they are not the same. Begin by establishing or updating your professional profile. Rutherford can then understand your current capabilities, objectives and the form of relationship that may be most relevant.
There is no charge to remain registered. A current profile allows Rutherford to understand where you are today, the environments in which you may create value and the opportunities or professional relationships that interest you.
Registration does not itself confer membership or active representation.
Talent Guild™ and Talent Clearinghouse™ membership is selective. Rutherford considers professional history, accomplishments, objectives, market relevance and applicable RutherfordINTEL™ evidence together.
Assessment informs the decision; it does not guarantee membership.
ReferralNET™ enables qualified Guild and Clearinghouse members to recommend prospective members, make opportunity-related introductions and, where eligible, receive referral bounties arising from collected enterprise revenue.
The selective Affiliate Programme is reserved for independent talent-acquisition professionals who benchmark for high-performance potential in executive search or executive recruitment and are prepared to originate and steward professional relationships over time.
