Otherwise, below is a list of search firms that have established systemwide professional services agreements with the University of California. Select the type of Executive Recruitment Search Firms the department would like to purchase using the list below.

These firms have provided discount pricing to be accepted onto this list, and are immediately available to managers because the professional services agreements already exist. A number of the firms offer services specific to particular functions -- like Marketing, Technology, and Student Affairs -- others offer unbundled services where, for a lower fee, the firm will conduct only part of the search process. Some vendors will charge only an hourly rate, and several will consider contingency placement assignments in addition to retained searches. The list is managed out of Human Resources, Office of the President.
