Recruiter Headhunter Business Cards

Standard 2" x 3.5" on 18 pt. Premium Kraft fits every wallet, candidate folio, and hiring-manager card holder recruiters already carry daily. Kraft texture signals approachable professionalism without glossy staffing-agency flash that passive candidates ignore. Eighteen-point stiffness feels as durable as the placements you close and survives busy hands at industry roundtables and retained-search dinners.

Executive search firms and boutique headhunters handing cards at hundreds of industry mixers, alumni executive events, and hiring-manager partner desks often need 5000 cards before scaling across associate recruiters without rationing desk and travel stacks. Bulk pricing on kraft rectangle stock lowers per-handoff cost while still delivering a tactile follow that outlasts buried LinkedIn messages after a hallway chat. Reorder from the locked proof when practice-area URLs or credential lines change without paying design setup again.

One labeled QR to a confidential candidate intake form, niche practice landing page, or retained-search overview outperforms cluttered icon rows on a kraft rectangle face. We test scans under bright hotel ballroom lighting and dim restaurant lamp glow during proofing. Keep the direct line larger than the QR because hiring managers often call from offices when they want to confirm a search slot before a board hiring deadline. Many shops start near 5,000 pieces at 2x3.5.

Lock firm palette, standard die, and Premium Kraft stock, then swap recruiter name, practice cue such as CFO manufacturing or biotech R&D, and direct mobile from a spreadsheet. Labeled cartons help search ops restock the right desk kit without mixing QR destinations between satellite offices. Shared visual identity with personal callability converts accountant referrals faster than one generic card on a partner table after a retained consult. Many shops start near 5,000 pieces at 2x3.5.

18 pt. Premium Kraft resists curl when cards pass hand to hand at executive mixers and partner dinners. Natural fiber finish keeps firm names readable under mixed stage wash and hotel lounge lighting recruiters experience weekly. Human inspectors check stack flatness on every 5000-count rectangle run before boxes ship to your search office or home base.

Production typically runs a few business days after digital proof approval on large runs. Ground transit from the nearest CA, OH, TX, FL, or NJ plant usually delivers in about 3-5 business days depending on carrier routes. Rush tiers appear at checkout when an industry conference or retained-search kickoff is tighter than standard ground allows. Checkout separates production from shipping so placement calendars stay honest.

Regional hubs in Rhode Island, Texas, Ohio, Florida, California, and Kentucky shorten ground miles for most executive search and talent advisory markets. Northeast finance rows from Rhode Island, Texas for Gulf energy executive networks, Ohio for Midwest manufacturing leadership searches, Florida for Southeast hospitality C-suite hunts, California for West Coast tech talent pipelines, and Kentucky for mid-South healthcare leadership desks. Checkout shows honest calendars before you commit to a busy conference push. Many shops start near 5,000 pieces at 2x3.5.

Use the back for one short line such as Retained search and confidential inquiries, a single QR to intake forms, or a calm practice pointer without crowding the front call line. Skip long fee tables that belong on engagement letters. Free Design Setup balances both sides so the front stays recruiter-forward while the back triggers the right follow-up after a hiring-manager conversation. Many shops start near 5,000 pieces at 2x3.5.

The printed QR points to the URL established at production time. If your intake host changes later, use a stable landing page that redirects to the new practice hub so existing cards keep working. We recommend that pattern during Free Design Setup so managers scanning cards from last search season still reach live confidential forms without forcing a mid-quarter reprint. Many shops start near 5,000 pieces at 2x3.5.
