Clearing the Fog, Part I of II
The Principals, Laws and Ethics Behind Recruiting Firm
"Non-Solicitiation" Policies with Clients

By: Frank Risalvato

First, this article is not intended to be the last word from a legal perspective. We are not providing legal counsel but we have made an effort to present both the legal, ethical and business perspective of what is becoming a nagging issue as the candidate talent pool tightens and recruiting firms become forced to better define clients versus non-clients for the purposes of sourcing talent.

Secondly, let us define what we mean by "non-solicitation" as it applies to the search and recruiting/staffing industry. For the purposes of this article, "solicitation" refers to a recruiting firm's representing a candidate currently working with a client company.

Of course the term "solicitation" itself is inaccurate as quite often candidates seek the search firm out rather than the search firm "soliciting" (proactively contacting) the candidate. Yet this is the term most often used in contracts when addressing the issue of a search firm's responsibility when it comes to representing candidates working within a company that is using that same search firm's service.
