Sometimes even the greatest executive search companies face the reality that insufficient resources are being used. That’s when outsourced research comes to rescue them. This service is geared towards headhunter companies and companies wanting to conduct the recruitment process by themselves.
I’ll find the candidates, you’ll do the rest
Sounds simple, doesn’t it? There are only four steps for the best research cooperation between you and me.
1st step: You’ll send the job profile for me
The job profile is the road map for your recruitment. The success or failure of a hire is directly linked to the profile specification. The winning profile will cover details below:
- How to define the role and the outlook of the future
- The “nice to have” and mandatory requirements
- What is unique about the position, the company and the team?
- What is the salary range for the position?
- Where are the best candidates located today (companies, industries, location)?
- What recruitment challenges are there and how to overcome these?
- Are there any other important things we should take into account (e.g. remote work, travel dates per year, etc.)?
The job profile breaks down all the key information relating to the recruitment and is an essential tool for everyone involved in the recruitment. The job profile has the same requirements whether you are recruiting from your own network, placing a job ad or using an external headhunter. If you need assistance with the job profile, let me know.
2nd step: The project start meeting
After you’ve sent the job profile for me, we’ll have a 30 minutes Teams meeting about the project timeline and all other relevant topics. Both parties can ask the questions.
3rd step: I will find the talents
Based on a detailed job profile, I will make the research and create a longlist of candidates. Then I’ll provide the longlist for you in 1-2 weeks (average time span) of the markets most highly qualified talents.
My main focus is on the best talents in the marketplace, those who are not actively looking for a new job, and who need to be tracked down and individually approached. These “passive candidates” would not normally apply through a job ad, as they are already thriving where they are. They might be open for new opportunities though.
The winning research methodology is created from best-practice techniques used by the world’s top executive search firms and is universal, achieving the same success regardless of geography, function or industry.
4th step: The rest
When you have received a longlist from me, you take care of the process and do the rest. If you still need more candidates, I can continue the search until you’ll find the most suitable candidate for the position.
And, if you decide to outsource the rest, I’m here for that too.
