How We Work

We are selective - we only work with a small number of clients at any one time. We accept only those searches that we believe we can successfully complete within the client's timeframe.

  1. Understand the job. We hold interviews with the hiring manager and other key stakeholders to develop an understanding of the job and a profile of the ideal candidate. Based on our interviews of hundreds of professionals in these fields, and our many years of business experience, we provide input and feedback about the job design and marketplace for candidates.
  2. Network and Recruit. We work intensively on those searches, using direct recruiting and referral methods. Since individuals with the desired qualities are usually not actively looking for a job, they must be sought out. We look particularly for individuals who have established patterns of accomplishment and success in positions similar to our client's.
  3. Screen. We screen candidates thoroughly to more accurately assess their accomplishments, capabilities, potential and "fit" with the client's organization. We personally interview each candidate prior to scheduling an interview with our client.
  4. Present Candidates. We offer the best qualified candidates for your consideration. Final selection of the individual and offer of employment is always made by the client. We are available to assist as needed to establish the terms of employment. We usually check references on any qualified candidates, although our clients frequently prefer to check references on their own. Our clients' experience is that they would be willing to hire any of the candidates we send. Their task becomes one of identifying the person that they believe best matches their culture and team, instead of having to determine whether the individual has the skills and motivation to succeed in the position.
