Premium Headhunting Recruitment Services

The Headhunting Recruitment Process

The process of headhunting recruitment vs traditional recruitment is far more detailed. Here is an overview of what you can expect: 

 

In-depth Consultation  

Understanding your business and your individual needs is a crucial first step in the headhunting process. During this step, we will explore factors such as company culture, specifics of the role, candidate must-haves and more. Collecting this information early on allows us to laser focus our search and ensure we are targeting the correct type of candidates from the get-go.  

 

Search Strategy  

Leveraging our extensive network of contacts we can engage in a proactive form of recruitment. Our advanced research tools allow us to approach leaders in the field who are sure to add value to your company and thrive in the role.  

 

Discretion  

Discretion is crucial for both your company and the potential candidate. Confidentiality is the hallmark of a successful headhunting organisation, and becomes all the more essential when hiring for executive level roles or approaching passive candidates.  

 

Evaluation  

Once the potential candidates have been engaged, the rigorous process of evaluating them can begin. We use a variety of methods to ensure they are a good fit for your company, including a thorough review of their professional background, behavioural assessments and exploration of cultural cohesion for the company.  

 

The Shortlist  

It is only after we have performed the rigorous search and evaluation that we present our shortlist of candidates. We will highlight the keynotes, achievements and provide a detailed profile for your consideration.  

 

The Interview  

The interview process is managed and supported by our team of experts. We will ensure both interviewer and candidate are fully prepared and will provide detailed feedback on each interaction.  

 

Onboarding  

Once you have made the final decision, we will assist with negotiation of your behalf to ensure the candidate is secured and happy. After they have accepted the offering, we will ensure a smooth transition and oversee the onboarding process.  

 

Follow Up  

Our regular follow-ups in the months following ensure continued success for the candidate and your team. Smooth integration and ongoing support are an essential part of the headhunting recruitment process and are the only way to guarantee long term success.

Headhunting Recruitment FAQ's

1How long does the headhunting process take?
Headhunting takes longer than traditional recruitment due to the thorough search and evaluation processes involved. The industry and level of the role can also influence the timeframe. Any expectations about your timeline will be discussed early in the process and our experts will strive to meet them and to the highest possible standard.
2What do you do to enforce confidentiality during the search and hire process?
Internal protocols, NDA's and confidential communication are just some of the ways we ensure confidentiality throughout the process. Discretion is the cornerstone of effective headhunting and we pride ourselves on ensuring the right candidate is engaged with the highest levels of confidentiality.
3What happens if a candidate doesn't work out?
Our communication throughout the intense screening process and continued support after an offer has been accepted gives us full confidence that your new employee is the right fit. Our stringent measures ensure any potential issues are identified before a shortlist is made. However, we will always work with our valued clients to find an exceptional replacement if the initial candidate does not work out.
