Methodology

  • To enhance the advisory role of the consultant, we are personally involved in every step of the way including all sourcing and analysis. 

​

  • To determine our approach to preferred candidates, together we develop a detailed brief including a comprehensive specification for the role and person required. 

​

  • We agree on a target list of organisations to investigate and identify individuals with relevant experience and qualifications. 

​

  • A pro-active approach is then applied, as candidates with the desired qualities are usually not actively looking for a new position. Once a candidate has confirmed an interest for the opportunity, an initial meeting to assess their experience and suitability is conducted, which eventually leads to a formal and controlled introduction.

​​

  • The rigorous recruitment process that includes a personality test is designed to deliver the best qualified candidates to be compared and evaluated. 

​​​

  • Towards the end of the recruitment process, the references provided by the chosen candidate are confirmed.​​

​

  • Following a successful recruitment assignment, we maintain contact with all parties to ensures that everybody is satisfied.
