Ever work for a corporation and notice there are way more young people than older people? Where are all the older people?
Front desk, front line workers are the young, inexperienced, and sadly poor performers. The majority gain experience as they age and move up to management, back-office, or leave and start their own business.
This question is like an infantry grunt asking where all the officers are hiding.
Moving up == selling your soul harder
That's certainly what we told ourselves when I was starting out. Now it just sounds like naive envy. I spend most of my time now helping people grow in their careers and double their income. Doesn't feel like selling my soul.
Recruiter?
No. Management. I get paid more if my team performs better, therefore, I am incentivized to help them grow their skills, capabilities, and career. The better I do with the teams I am assigned, the more people I am given to manage. The more people I manage, the more I get paid.
