  • CLIENT BRIEFINGS - Gain a clear understanding of the client's overall needs, goals, management style and corporate culture.
  • JOB DEFINITION - Formalize the job requirements and list the qualifications of the ideal candidate. The end product is a profile that includes the responsibilities, experience, knowledge and abilities required for an individual to become a productive member of your organization.
  • RESEARCH and PROSPECTING - Perform extensive research and contact prospective candidates to discuss both their suitability and interest in the position. The goal is to have an initial benchmark candidate at the end of thirty days.
  • SCREENING and INTERVIEWING PROSPECTS - An on-going process to ensure that all of the viable candidates are located and evaluated against the stated criteria.
  • INTRODUCTION OF CANDIDATES - A select group of the most qualified prospects are evaluated in-depth and presented for your consideration.
  • CLIENT INTERVIEWS - From the candidates presented, the client conducts one or more interviews.
  • DETAILED REFERENCE CHECKING - Once the preferred candidate is selected, we conduct comprehensive reference checks with those people qualified to comment on the candidate's skills, accomplishments, integrity, ethics and personal characteristics.
  • NEGOTIATION - Assist in negotiating the compensation package and employment arrangements.
  • FOLLOW-UP - Periodic communication with both the client and the hired candidate to determine if the expectations of both parties are being met and to minimize the possibility of a communications breakdown.
  • TIMEFRAME(S) - From the conclusion of the briefing sessions to establishing a benchmark candidate is usually thirty days. Generally, the total process will take between sixty to ninety days, with the critical factor being the logistics and personal interviews.
