Andy Neary explains his recruiting approach as being a career fiduciary, advising candidates to think in years rather than months. Sometimes the right move is taking a role for experience and mentorship, not the biggest paycheck now, because careers are infinite games.

On the term we use. You'll see it on my LinkedIn content all the time. It's a career fiduciary. So I don't look at us as like a headhunter. You know, a transactional recruiter is just trying to make a placement fee. We're guiding people through what's in their best interest in our clients. Best interest. And that means that we drove revenue and made a placement, and everything worked out great if it didn't. And I encourage somebody to pursue something that didn't have my best interest or my client's best interest, because I think it's in their best interest to say, hey, hey, go here for a couple years, gain some more experience, work under some great mentors, and then let's, like, come back, because then you're kind of ready for the next step up. Then that's great. And it goes back to the infinite game thing of, like, I'm in this forever. And I think everybody should be viewing their career as forever. It's like, you might need to make some moves to put yourself in a position to really hit it big. And that might take, you know, changing business cards and wearing different jerseys to get yourself to that point where you're. You're really ready to thrive and kind of max out your potential.
