There are several components to our commitment to quality, which are present in all of our search assignments:

We begin each assignment with meetings with our client stakeholders to ascertain the search parameters, job functions, and organization environment. This includes understanding the chemistry of the existing management team, as well as the culture of the organization.

We conduct all of our own research, which is overseen by a principal. We are able to generate rich and diverse candidate pools for our clients because we control and personalize the research activity and deploy a multicultural research team.

Once the basic research is completed, the principal begins the process of assessing candidates using a behavioral interviewing format developed with the client's input on characteristics of success in their corporate culture. This process forces us to think objectively and honestly about the candidates' fit with the positions specifications.

We validate our recommendations and findings by conducting reference checks, which are also behavioral and observation-based.

We spend a significant amount of time assessing our practice and our performance. We evaluate the success of each search not only by the richness and diversity of the candidate pool, but by the longevity and contribution they bring to our clients' business as well.

Because we value and appreciate the relationships we have with our clients, we maintain long-term relationships with them and the placed candidates, and continue to follow-up through the 90-day initiation period.
