Full role profile, Functional and Behavioral competencies, Geography, Target companies, any off limits, timeline, process and your E.V.P. (Employee value proposition).

Research

Once we are clear on the scope of the search, essentially cast a net over the talent pool and identify every candidate across the geographical location who looks to have the right skill set to meet the criteria.

Approaching

We then systematically and professionally approach every single candidate using multiple methods, including direct, but professional headhunting, to gain as much interest in the opportunity as possible.

Steering Meetings

The whole process is transparent, we share with you, every week, our progress - a spreadsheet showing every candidate. If faced with challenge, work with you to re-steer the search accordingly.

Longlist

Ultimately, a long list of candidates emerges who have been assessed against the brief, both functionally and behaviorally and are interested in the opportunity.

From this long-list, we will jointly agree a shortlist of 3 -5 for you to interview (Hire)
At the end of the process, you will be absolutely confident you are making your hire from all of the best talent available to you in the market, at this time.
