Process
|
The key to any successful search is the research and preparation
given to the assignment. It then becomes a matter of having a
complete understanding of the client’s organization, its
culture, defining the position, the identification, recruiting,
screening and interviewing of candidates, while constantly partnering
with the client throughout the search process.
|
Step 1: Needs Assessment
Develop an understanding of the client’s
organizational structure, business success measures, competitive
landscape, short/long-term goals, and the leadership needs required
by the individual we will recruit. Define the responsibilities,
reporting relationships and compensation for the position. Determine
the required industry experience, skill sets and competencies,
and other personal characteristics the successful candidate must
possess. Develop a comprehensive list of companies to be targeted.
Compile a pool of potential candidates through networks and sources,
database and research records, directories, associations, periodicals
and client recommendations.
|
Step 2: Recruit and Evaluate
Contact industry sources, develop network,
initiate direct mail, email, and website positing to potential
candidates, telephone potentials to stimulate interest, pursue
qualified referrals, and market the opportunity, the organization
and the location. Evaluate those candidates with the best credentials
to determine their “fit” in relation to the position
specifications and how they would fit into culture.
|
Step 3: Present Candidates
Submit to client a detailed resume, accompanied by a detailed analysis
of our interview findings on the candidate's professional experience,
management style and skill sets, and personal traits and characteristics.
Identify finalist candidates based on our observations.
|
Step 4: Arrange Candidate Interviews with Client
Assist with the coordination of arranging interviews between the
client and each finalist candidate.
|
Throughout the entire process it is our commitment to keep both
the client and the candidate informed. We have found through our
many searches that good communication is the key to a win-win search.
