The Retained Search Process
Assess Your Business Culture and Position Requirements
- We will meet key executives in your organization to understand your goals, hiring process, position specifications and company culture to ensure that we have a complete understanding of your needs.
Develop a Position Profile
- We will develop a position profile to identify key responsibilities, credentials, experience and personality traits necessary to be successful. This process saves you time and expense by identifying qualified candidates that are the right fit for your organization.
Research and Source Candidates
- After identifying target companies/candidates to be investigated, we utilize our project team, our broad-based network of contacts, and our extensive internal database, to identify the specific individuals we will approach on your behalf.
Interview, Reference Check, Credentials Review and Evaluation
- We pre-screen applicants and personally interview candidates who meet core requirements. We also utilize compatibility assessment tools to evaluate an individual's key personality traits and work style preferences.
- We verify credentials and references before candidates are presented to you for consideration.
Present a Confidential Candidate Report
- After conducting a complete evaluation of potential candidates, we develop a comprehensive candidate report that summarizes their background, education, career history, compensation, references and credentials, as well as personality profile feedback.
- Confidential candidate reports are presented to you for consideration and discussion before interviews are scheduled.
Facilitate and Coordinate Candidate Interviews
- We will schedule and make the necessary arrangements for a convenient time for you to interview qualified candidates.
Job Offer and On-Going Follow Up
- As the assignment concludes, we can provide advice on salary, compensation packages and contracts to ensure acceptance of the offer.
- We actively participate in the offer stage to eliminate any unforeseen negotiation or counter-offer issues.
- We remain in contact with new executives as they become successfully established and integrated into their new positions and company.
