Our Six-Step Search Process

Step 1: We utilize a deep job intake process to get to know you, your business, and your organization’s culture and goals. This allows us to go layers below the surface to capture the essence of your hiring needs.

This helps us market the unique and special attributes of your company and the position to attract the best candidates to find you the right people without wasting your time.

Step 2: We execute a 6-step sourcing process that allows us to identify the overall market of candidates who could possibly fit your position.

Step 3: We reach out to the top 20-25 sourced candidates with a marketing message that promotes the unique and special aspects of your company and the position. Our process is designed to consistently market to attract, assess, and place the best talent quickly.

Step 4: We execute a comprehensive screening process which includes skills and cultural fit assessments and then choose the 3-5 best candidates who meet your criteria and are interested in your position. These are the people we submit for your interviews.

Step 5: We manage the expectations and communications with the candidate you are interested in. This maximizes the odds of candidates accepting your offer instead of your competitor’s.

Step 6: After you hire and onboard our candidates, we keep in touch with them to ensure that any issues or concerns are identified and addressed. This minimizes the unnecessary loss of good hires.

Bottom line: beyond building deep relationships in the Total Rewards and M&A industry, the key to vetting is to look at the candidate from multiple perspectives and ask the right questions to uncover their strengths and weaknesses. From there, we can help match them with their perfect fit.
