Re:Ask HN: How much do you tech recruiters make? by Peroni on Monday December 12, 2011 @03:35AM (#3342843)
However, the skills that make you a good devlpr are almost polar opposite the skills that make someone a good recruiter. Being a recruiter takes a strong sales aptitude.

The sales aptitude gets your foot in the door, a thorough understanding of your clients business and needs keeps you there. Your argument is one of a sales orientated recruiter grasping at straws.

A significant pay packet and a 1st class client list negates your argument that a technical understanding is a hindrance.
