We’re driven to find the best candidate for the position because we understand the value the right leader can bring to your business. As one of the leading recruitment consulting firms, we take pride in how we attract and assess our executive talent because it delivers results.
Executive search and selection is a meticulous process involving mapping, sourcing, assessing, and qualifying potential candidates. That’s why experience matters. We source candidates based on your criteria and assess all applicants through rigorous assessments, background checks, and interviews. We support and consult throughout the assignment process to ensure the best candidate is selected. And we focus on being precise and delivering you an effective outcome for your people and your business.
But we’re not afraid to think outside the box. With our insight and knowledge based on years of experience, we know what questions to ask and we also know what kind of response we should be hearing. We go wide, headhunting and sourcing a variety of candidates. We don’t make assumptions about profiles or CV’s because we appreciate not everyone communicates their skills and character effectively. We meet people and ask questions first, then, we make data-based decisions on their fit for the role.
The executive search recruitment process varies in the time from initial briefing to your new employee starting, but we recommend you allow at least 3 months. However, your recruitment timeline may vary depending on the clarity of what you are looking for, the confidence in how you will make your decision, and the simplicity in the stages, times, and locations for the interviews.
The project briefing is an opportunity for us to investigate your executive vacancy. We meet with you regularly to get to know you, your business, people, and brand. We discuss the job description and key selection criteria that complements your strategic plan. This information acts as the foundations for the sourcing and selection process.
To assess candidate suitability, we conduct assessments, background checks, and interviews with selected candidates. We provide you with a shortlist of suitably qualified candidates that meet your key criteria, are motivated to deliver results, complement your culture, and enhance your brand.
The interview stages are critical to your decision making. You will interview your selected candidates and involve key decision makers across your business. When you have all the information from the assessments, interviews, and background checks, you will be able to make your final decision and construct an attractive offer to your new employee. And we’ll be with you along the way.
We help you prepare for the successful transition of your new employee. This starts at the negotiation of the contract and continues through to when your new employee resigns from their employment, the successful first day, and the onboarding. We engage with you and your new employee to support the relationship and allow for a smooth and successful process. The onboarding and first 90 days are critical in the success and retention of your employee. We offer four one-hour complimentary executive coaching sessions specifically for the onboarding stage.
