Whether it is growth, improvement or optimisation, the key processes require the commitment of effective middle managers and top-level experts, who often have to be actively sought in the labour market.
Direct Search is a method of approaching directly managers and key specialists with skills that are rarely found in the labour market. The method involves identifying the right people by analysing the corresponding professional groups, penetrating companies in the relevant market sector with a similar structure and organisation, and contacting potential Candidates directly. The market research we run in these cases requires from us a very thorough knowledge of the sector and the position itself.
In justified cases, we support the search process with advertisements in carefully selected internet services to generate an additional pool of potential Candidates. Such advertisements are usually placed on a confidential basis, making it impossible to identify the company for which Candidates are being sought.
The pool of potential Candidates is analysed and verified on the basis of precise selection criteria agreed with the Client. The most suitable Candidates are invited for a structured interview. These interviews allow us to assess the Candidates’ professional experience, qualifications of merit and personality traits, as well as their level of motivation to work for our Client.
The next step is to prepare written Individual Reports on the final shortlisted Candidates who fulfil the agreed requirements to the highest extent. At the same time, we organise their face-to-face meetings with our Client. Once we are familiar with the Client’s initial preferences, we gather professional references for the preferred Candidate to support the final decision.
Additional tools to verify competencies include psychometric testing and methods such as Individual Assessment, which we use in the final stage of the recruitment process.
As part of our standard service, we actively support the integration process of hired Candidates.
In our recruitment processes, we usually contact Candidates who are not actively looking for a new job. Very often, when we ask potential Candidate about motivation, we hear that the only reason, why they talk to us is: “just the curiosity.” Turning this curiosity into real interest in a specific job offer and readiness to accept it is the responsibility of both the recruiter and the new employer. So how to encourage the Candidate to change his attitude?
