Executive search. Every candidate is taken through an in-depth, personal interview. Initially, candidates are interviewed on a holistic basis for a complete understanding of what makes them unique as well as their short and long-term goals and aspirations. Upon further investigation, and when appropriate, specific opportunities are disclosed that fulfill the candidate’s desire, taking into account job responsibilities, career path, office environment and any other needs and wants specifically addressed during the meeting. Career coaching. Sound advice and a reassuring nudge are often what is needed to help make a desired career change, to start up a business or just to help introduce and clarify options that you may not have realized existed. Career coaching sessions are offered on a range of topics and customized for each individual. Some common areas of discussion include interviewing techniques, resume and portfolio enhancement, appealing for a specific opportunity, career change and starting a new business. Human resource consulting. A variety of consulting services are offered for businesses including best hiring practices, reputation building, employee development and retention, job creation and competitive compensation analysis. Urgent requests fulfilled. In addition to our core competency of finding full-time talent, we can provide stress-relief when you need to find freelance talent yesterday. We represent a roster of talent in areas including, but not limited to, design, implementation, account management and business development available for contract positions. A collective of consultants at the ready. Representing a variety of consultants to help solve any short and long-term challenges facing your businesses, we can introduce you to professionals with expertise in motivational workshops, honing your company’s core proposition, marketing communications support, organizational psychology, helping companies pitch to win, executive coaching and renowned industry speakers. Value for businesses. Simply put: Time=Money! Our track record for getting you the right talent means on the first try if not the second or third. Our goal is to save you the time it takes sifting through resumes, many of which have no relevancy to the position you are seeking to fill. To find the best talent, you cannot rely upon merely going to a competitive firm’s list of employees, connecting on a social networking site or using a database. That tactic results in a match-up of skill sets devoid of the personal attention, keen insight into the intricacies of your business and gut instinct all required to put the right talent in front of you, the first time. Your business is unique in its vision, philosophy and culture. Your search consultancy should be immersed in the very essence of your business, understand what you stand for and be as conversant about your company as you are; hiring for the long-term growth and success of your business are dependent upon it. Accelerating businesses growth. Our most successful engagements are the companies that act as our business partners. The better our understanding of your business, current needs and long-term aspirations, the greater an asset we become in providing the appropriate talent, often when you didn’t even know you needed it or had to have it. Achieving the desired career trajectory for job seekers. Ideally, we introduce job seekers to a number of different employment opportunities. Each will have a common thread that aligns with your skills and expressed desired characteristics in a new role but will differ by size, culture, philosophy and even services provided. This process is an invaluable experience that allows an exploration of where you can grow your career, challenge yourself and consider things you may have never known existed. Upon making a decision, you will feel as though you have been educated as well as confident and assured that you are making the best decision for your career and increasing the likelihood that it is somewhere you will want to stay.
