Successful searches start with clear expectations, defined responsibilities, and agreed-upon timelines. Our recruitment searches are fully managed end to end—we identify, source, screen, and evaluate candidates who meet your requirements. You receive interview notes for each pre-screened candidate, including qualifications, education, compensation, and employment history. All presented candidates have expressed interest in your position.
Here are the three search phases and a brief explanation of each step we’ve found to be the most beneficial progression for our clients:
Successful searches begin with a clear understanding of the process, assignment of responsibilities, and a mutually agreeable timeframe for each step. Every recruitment search is a full-service process. We identify, source, contact, screen, and evaluate candidates who meet your professional recruitment requirements. You receive interview notes on each pre-screened prospect, including qualifications based on the core competencies of the position,
educational background, current compensation and employment history. All candidates presented to you will have expressed an interest in your available position.
Meet with key executives to understand your culture, strategy, and leadership needs, and define your organization’s key selling points.
And finally we’ll consult with the key hiring executive within your organization as well as other stakeholders for further insight into the ideal candidate to fill your position.
We’ll help you pinpoint the roles, responsibilities, and qualifications of the position you want to fill. A detailed position specification will be developed that includes an overview of your organization (to be excluded or generic in confidential search situations).
The position specification will focus on what the candidate is expected to accomplish, define what success on the job looks like, and what competencies are required to successfully fulfill the job requirements.
Your senior executive search consultant will personally identify, evaluate and recruit potential candidates for your consideration. The top candidates will be thoroughly interviewed and assessed, and a final candidate slate for your review will be compiled. Detailed written interview assessments will be provided as appropriate or requested.
You will be presented with a manageable number (typically 3-5) of the best qualified and most interested candidates for you to interview personally. We will help coordinate the interview process and obtain feedback from you as well as each candidate following your interviews.
Comprehensive reference checks will be conducted on the final candidate or candidates. We generally conduct a full 360-degree background check including feedback from individuals who have managed the candidate, worked as a peer or customer of the candidate, and those who have worked for the candidate. Confidential written reports are available at your request.
We will provide our assistance and expertise in facilitating an offer mutually agreeable to you and the candidate. We will customize the process to best fit the situation and ensure a successful conclusion.
TowerHunter will remain in contact with you and the successful candidate to help ensure a smooth transition into the position. We are also available for other valuable services such as facilitating a “new manager assimilation” process that can help expedite a successful transition for your new leader. Our ultimate goal is to make sure your successful candidate becomes a long-term contributor to the success of your organization.
