I actually got two separate organizations confused. The "Head Hunters" 
indeed were the one's that took (and sent me to) the employers that were 
looking for people. This resulted in some of the worse jobs I ever had.

The people that enlightened me about there being red flags when a 
company (in the middle of a bad recession) is seeking out Head Hunters 
to find people, were *after* I had gone through finding my worse ever 
jobs from the Head Hunters (that just wanted to fill quotas).
