Our Recruitment Process

1

Strategic Intake

In-depth analysis of the role, organisation, culture, team dynamics and growth perspective. We understand not only who you are looking for, but why.

2

Active Search & Sourcing

Targeted approach of candidates from our network, combined with executive search methodology. We also reach passive candidates who are not actively looking.

3

Assessment & Screening

Technical evaluation, competency testing, reference checks and cultural fit assessment. Every candidate is thoroughly vetted before you meet them.

4

Shortlist & Introduction

You receive a selection of 3-5 top candidates with comprehensive profiles, assessment results and our rationale. We facilitate the introductory meetings.

5

Negotiation & Offer

We guide the negotiation process and advise on market-competitive remuneration packages. This accelerates acceptance and prevents miscommunication.

6

Onboarding & Guarantee

After signing, we support the onboarding process and remain involved for 3 months as a guarantee partner. In case of early departure, we deliver a replacement candidate.

3-Month Guarantee Period

We stand behind every placement with a guarantee period of 3 months. If the placed professional leaves or does not perform to expectations within this period, we conduct a replacement search at no additional cost. This guarantee applies to both contingency and retained search assignments.

Our track record speaks for itself: 94% of our placements are still successfully employed at the client organisation after 12 months. This is the result of our thorough screening on both technical competencies and cultural fit.
