Search Process

  1. We conduct discussions with appropriate staff and executives of your company to fully develop our understanding of your needs, the personalities involved and your corporate culture.
     
  2. We seek qualified candidates through targeted research, conversations with peer contacts, industry contacts, academic contacts, and trade associations.
     
  3. Our conversations with prospective candidates will address two general objectives:
     
    1. Screening candidates against the qualifications profile;
    2. Enrolling potentially qualified candidates in the opportunity your company represents.
       
  4. We present qualified candidates' professional credentials and narrative descriptions of their relevant experience. In addition, we determine their respective levels of interest and suggest schedules that meet these.
     
  5. We work with your organization to manage the process that begins with agreeing on the candidates to be interviewed and concludes with extension of offers. This includes administrative aspects such as scheduling interviews and making hotel reservations. In addition, we maintain informal, open relationships with both you and the candidates so that any concerns on both sides are identified and addressed promptly.
     
  6. We manage expectations within the process so that each participant is kept properly informed and the search remains as inclusive of these individuals as is appropriate.
     
  7. We stay in close contact with candidates, ensuring that the offer presentation is made properly.
     
  8. We follow up with both client contact and the successful candidate after the first thirty days of employment, after three months, and after one year.
     
  9. During the entire search process, we will be in constant communication with you as the need to accommodate new information or changes in the assignment's specification or qualification profile may arise. Our process challenges many assumptions and evaluates the client environment and takes into consideration changing market conditions.
