Our Recruitment Process

Before the search begins we conduct detailed discussions with the hiring executives, Human Resources and other relevant parties to gather as much information as possible on the position, culture, and company.

Develop a search strategy with you as well as a position profile that reflects the experiences, competencies, and personal qualities desired for this role. We actively partner with you in this process always providing you our honest, candid perspectives.

Identify a selection of potential candidates from our extensive industry networks, proprietary database and targeted research into relevant talent pools. We then conduct preliminary screenings to determine profile fit and gauge candidate interest.

Complete a full candidate assessment and formal in-depth interview. We align your specific needs with the potential candidates career goals so we can pinpoint and elicit mutually beneficial lasting relationships. Selected highly qualified candidates are then submitted with a detailed career summary for consideration by your team. Our support extends throughout the interviewing process to client and candidate interview debriefing, as well as providing counsel to ensure best fit.

Once selecting the preferred candidate, we perform all recommendations, reference checks and calls to further assess competencies, strengths and weaknesses, and to provide external views of the potential hire. We will advise you in preparing and negotiating an offer. Once finalized and accepted we maintain close contact with the new hire during their notice period and through their start date to facilitate a seamless transition.

After placement, we will check in periodically with the hiring manager, Human Resources and your newly hired leader to ensure both parties are satisfied and that their expectations have been met throughout our guarantee period.
