It’s certainly a valid question to find out why employers should engage and pay executive search firms.
Too Important
The simple reason is that the “right person for the job” can make or break a business. At an executive level, you simply can’t gamble with an average recruitment process.
Here are a few more reasons below:
Time-Saving
We’re good at what we do, so we’re fast and efficient. By ensuring that employers interview only the most qualified, vetted candidates, we free them up to focus on more valuable business needs.
Specific Targeting
We never advertise roles. Instead, we have dedicated, experienced head-hunters who painstakingly engage our database and prospective “passive” candidates one-by-one with carefully curated conversations that dials up the employer value proposition, suitability for the role and important areas of strengths.
Unique Sourcing Methodology
With over two decades of recruitment experience, we’ve developed a multi-pronged sourcing strategy which is tried and tested. We bring a fresh external perspective, up-to-date market expertise and proprietary recommendations.
Fresher Pools of Candidates
As we’re the eyes and ears of the talent market, we often pick up different candidate trends. This means we’ll often introduce new types of candidates that you didn’t even realise you needed.
Confidentiality
Our search process is conducted with the utmost discretion. This ensures that both the employer and candidate’s professional reputations are protected throughout.
Global Coverage
As our search process involves African professionals from all over the world, you can rest assured that we’ve left no stone unturned. This brings an important level of confidence to the hiring team.
Fair Process
By using the same rigorous yardstick to assess each candidate, this signals the importance and objectivity of the process to candidates, external stakeholders and current employees.
