Our Process

---

Every organization and industry is unique. There’s no ONE solution that will work for everyone. That’s why we work with your hiring managers and team members to identify what the right fit is by:

• Identifying the core competencies they need
• Matching their personality to your company culture
• Matching compensation to expectation

Our senior led executive search team finds these details using competitive compensation analysis to understand how location, industry, and economic trends determine fair valuation. This analysis allows us to fairly value their talents so you attract the right list of high-caliber candidates.

After we’ve established the key traits we are looking for and what compensation will incentivize them, our team begins the recruitment drive. We reach out to matching candidates using existing lists and our network of resources.

This process generates a list of 50-200 qualified candidates for an executive search. During this process, we stay in touch with you so we can work together to tighten search parameters for filtering. This is key to when we start the connecting process.

After we’ve established a list of qualified candidates, we move to evaluations. Our team implements the 10/5/2 search method. 

Here’s how it works:

     We take the qualified list and narrow it to the top ten candidates based on the qualifications, experience, company objectives, culture and behavioral fit our team established with yours. We schedule a meeting with the key members of your team to curate that list to the top 5 candidates. 

We take the top 5 candidates through a rigorous, person led, due diligence process. This includes competency-based interviews, deep dive personality and culture assessments, and more. Our process is nuanced so we can tailor down to a list of bespoke picks ensuring immediate results. 

• Once our executive search team has narrowed your options, we share the results. You get a deep look into your candidates’ competency evaluations and behavioral assessments. You then get to select the two most qualified finalists.

• Our team matches your needs to our referencing process. Every step of the process is tailored to your needs and ideal outcome. From here, you move into negotiations. These are simple and transparent conversations due to pre-vetting and the compensation analysis from earlier.

• From here, the timeline shifts to your company and moves at your pace. We support you so you can act with both urgency and purpose. 

• Once you reach an agreement, our team works with you to ensure onboarding moves quickly. We also schedule consistent check-ins to ensure the candidate is proving the right fit for your company’s long-term goals.
