Methodology

 

Our search methodology underscores a highly disciplined process, adhering to rigorous and uncompromising standards.

 


 

 

IN-DEPTH BRIEFING WITH CLIENT

 

By meeting with the hiring executive, board or search committee, our consultants develop a thorough understanding of the client's organization and position.

     
   
     

DEVELOPING SPECIFICATIONS

 

The specifications include a comprehensive profile of the position and client organization, best search strategy and professional fee structure.

     
   
     

TARGETING CANDIDATES

 

Our researchers and consultants conduct a comprehensive mapping and utilise personal and professional networks, and technology to create an exhaustive list of potential candidates.

     
   
     

ASSESSING THE MATCH

 

We meet face-to-face with potential candidates to evaluate their suitability, facilitate their assessment of our client's organization and determine the mutuality of interest.

     
   
     

PRESENTING QUALIFIED CANDIDATES

 

Before meeting with the finalists, our client receives detailed candidate reports presenting concisely their backgrounds, accomplishments, competencies, motivation and more.

     
   
     

SELECTION CONSULTATION WITH CLIENT

 

Clients often prefer to calibrate their own assessment of shortlisted candidates with our feedback to ensure a thorough and professional selection of the final candidate.

     
   
     

REFERENCING THE FINAL CANDIDATE

 

Objective and in-depth referencing to gather first hand knowledge of the final candidate's track record, achievements, qualities and attributes, and key areas requiring development.

     
   
     

ADVISING & NEGOTIATING OFFER

 

Clients typically tap into our local and industry knowledge on compensation and employment terms. We are available to act as an intermediary during potentially sensitive negotiations.

     
   
     

FINALISING EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT

 

Candidates often need our help in managing their resignation. It could be to avoid ill-feeling and recriminations or the difficulty in leaving behind close relationships.

     
   
     

STAYING IN TOUCH

 

Our consultants stay in touch with the hiring executive/board and successful candidate to ensure a smooth integration and continued satisfaction of both parties.
