520    In High Tech and High Touch, James E. Coverdill and 
       William Finlay invite readers into the dynamic world of 
       headhunters, personnel professionals who acquire talent 
       for businesses and other organizations on a contingent-fee
       basis. In a high-tech world where social media platforms 
       have simplified direct contact between employers and job 
       seekers, Coverdill and Finlay acknowledge, it is 
       relatively easy to find large numbers of apparently 
       qualified candidates. However, the authors demonstrate 
       that headhunters serve a valuable purpose in bringing high
       -touch search into the labor market: they help parties on 
       both sides of the transaction to define their needs and 
       articulate what they have to offer. As well as providing 
       valuable information for sociologists and economists, High
       Tech and High Touch demonstrates how headhunters approach 
       practical issues such as identifying and attracting 
       candidates; how they solicit, secure, and evaluate search 
       assignments from client companies; and how they strive to 
       broker interactions between candidates and clients to 
       maximize the likelihood that the right people land in the 
       right jobs.
