When relevant, a search is conducted of target companies and our extensive database. We call or meet candidates to arouse their interest in the appointment.

Responses to an advertisement are sifted, and acknowledged. We discuss responses and potential candidates from the search with the client, and agree our long list of potential candidates.

We interview and evaluate potential candidates against the agreed criteria. We select the best candidates for presentation to the client. We administer tactfully the handling of rejections.

 
 
We present a confidential written report on each shortlisted candidate, giving personal details, career history, and an appraisal of the candidate relative to the specification. Where appropriate, this will include psychometric assessment.

We co-ordinate the meetings between our client and candidates.

We maintain close involvement with the preferred candidate to resolve any of his/her reservations, to foster commitment and to achieve a satisfactory conclusion.

To ensure the successful resolution of any contentious issue, we assist with the negotiation of mutually acceptable terms prior to these being presented as a formal written offer.

We undertake formal reference checks after the offer has been made, subsequently maintaining contact with both client and candidate to ensure that the appointment is successful.
