Two higher ed headhunters are joining forces. Academic Search, which helps place higher ed leaders in permanent jobs, and the Registry for College and University Presidents, which helps colleges fill interim spots, are now working together. Institutions that use either service will receive "discounts and preferential treatment from the other firm," and company officials said the deal could help avoid conflicts of interest and avoid the "pitfalls of two sequential searches," according to a press release by the firms, which made the deal public Tuesday.
