Recruiters aka "headhunters" work for employers. They aren't in business to assist job hunters who want to transfer to a new industry.
Employers won't pay recruiter fees for someone NOT currently in the same industry.
To transfer to a new industry is difficult. You should definitely get professional help to avoid a long, frustrating search that might not even be productive if you don't know what you're doing.

you're right....i used 'retain' and it made it seem like this guy could go hire a headhunter to work for him.
regardless, VC recruiting isn't cut and dry. as i said before, networking is key, and it is pretty essential (with no MBA or VC experience) that your background/expertise is the same as the focus of the VC firm
