Executive Search Associates works on behalf of client companies to search for and recruit highly qualified professionals; all fees related to the search are client-paid. In every search we establish a solid working relationship with the client company. This includes developing a thorough understanding of the position specification, organizational structure and company culture, as well as the client's expectations for the prospective employee. We then search for the best candidates, using our extensive network of referral sources and our central database of already identified candidates. Most of the people we approach are not actively in the job market. Frequently, they are qualified professionals in satisfactory situations, interested only in having exceptional career opportunities brought to their attention for serious consideration.
At this point we determine whether a person's qualifications, interests and objectives are consistent with the opportunity and to brief the prospective candidate on the position requirements. If there is interest and fit, we will discuss the candidate's credentials with the client and arrange for an interview.
Once a mutual interest is established between the client and candidate, we become facilitators. Your Executive Search Associates consultant will brief the candidate thoroughly on the client company and the interview process. Your consultant will assist in negotiating all aspects of any employment offer and will help identify any problems that may arise, working with you to resolve them.
