Our advertised assignments start with an initial briefing from the client during which the key parameters of the process are agreed and documented. 

The consultants then carries out an assignment study which usually involves visiting the client’s offices and meeting with one or more key executives to discuss the business environment, the sourcing processes, culture, priorities and any other issues that may affect the position.

We submit a position and candidate specification for the client to approve. The document describes in detail the company, the role, responsibilities, goals and key challenges of the position. It also summarizes the experience, qualifications and competencies required for success. These key competencies form the basis of our assessment of potential candidates throughout the search process.

When we have defined the key selection criteria with the client, we carefullt select media channels to advertise in. When the channels are selected we form both content and layout of the appropriate advertising material for each channel. 

Of course we take care of the contacts with the media channels and potential other advertisement sources, such as websites, networks, magazines, etc.

During the advertisement period we take care of all the contacts with the clients, inform them of the process and start the selection of potential candidates for the position. 

After the advertisement period is over we conduct telephone interviews with the candidates. Once we determine that an individual is both qualified and interested in the role, we meet in person for further evaluation.

Before presenting any candidate to the client, we also conduct a competency based interview. Each candidate is assessed and validated against the position specification and a report and recommendation are prepared for the client.

We introduce several candidates to the client for a personal meeting and for a confirmation of the candidate’s achievements and track record. 

After the client has selected their preferred candidate, our consultants conduct thorough referencing to further measure and assess competencies, strengths and weaknesses, and to provide our client with external views of the individual.

After having completed our mission we retain an interest in the candidates we have helped to recruit after they have taken up their new positions. We make ourselves available to the client to help with integration in whatever way we can.
