1. Consultation/Defining the Need - Thorough discussions with the company and key decision-makers to accurately define the need, the goals, and the fit. Short and long term role definition, compensation issues, time line and search goals are clearly discussed to ensure accurate baselines are established.

2. Research - This step begins within 24 hours of accepting an assignment. We begin by identifying target companies and individuals through research, searching our existing contact base and creative use of our other resources. Our research stage provides us with a creative action plan to begin the actual recruiting process.

3. Recruiting/Screening - Our screening process is time consuming and requires the skill and dedication of an experienced recruiting staff.  We’re skilled at selling (not over-selling) the opportunity, thus enabling you to access the top available talent.  We not only search for qualified, interested candidates…We search for candidates who are in the Top 5% of the Talent Pool.

4. Evaluation/Assessment - The experience gained in conducting searches since 1978, enables us to find quality candidates who meet your criteria. Our evaluation process is very thorough and requires the skill and dedication of a knowledgeable recruiting staff.  We interview, reference check, verify degrees and re-interview candidates so you’re only interviewing qualified candidates.

5. Interviewing/Coordination - We coordinate all meetings between the client and candidate(s), handle debriefings and schedule follow-up interviews with selected candidates.

6. Hiring Decision/Offer - We assist with clear, accurate information on the selected candidate’s current compensation package. The actual offer may be made by the client directly, but is more commonly done through us to assist with this often delicate negotiation process.

7. Follow-up - Throughout the search process we maintain regular contact with clients and candidates. We continue this follow-up after a person is hired to help ensure that both parties are satisfied.
