Often the very best candidates are not currently looking for a new role, so they're not posting their curriculum vitae to job boards and may not respond to newspaper advertisements. So, if you want to hire the best candidates, you need to find them, make them aware of your opportunity and motivate them to apply. Otherwise, they will just carry on in their current role completely unaware that the position you want to fill is available.

Using a specialist third party to identify suitable individuals within a target list of companies is normally the best way for clients to access these potential candidates. However, identifying who they are is only the first part of a search.

Once potential candidates are identified they need to be approached and presented with the opportunity. The objective is to secure their interest so that they can be considered for the role. Candidates who express an interest in the role are interviewed and those that best meet the requirements for the role are short-listed for consideration by the client. We work closely with both the client and candidates during the selection process to make sure that the transition from candidate to employee comes about as smoothly and professionally as possible.
