Like retained firms, our approach is always consultative, and we conduct ourselves with the utmost professionalism and urgency on every search. Since we specialize in your industry, we do not require any cycles to be up to speed on your technology or the positions we recruit on. Unlike traditional retained firms, you only compensate us if we perform on a search and we do not abandon you after we complete your executive searches. Once we have completed your executive searches, we remain engaged and help you build out your entire team until a liquidity event occurs.
We also recognize that not every search needs to be retained, so we offer a wide range of solutions that are based on your unique needs. Factors we consider prior to making a proposal are: the seniority and urgency to get the position filled, whether any new research is required, and the volume of positions you anticipate hiring through us that year. We then recommend the solution that best meets your needs. We guarantee our performance on all our searches, so we never take on search we are not confident we can fill. We also work in a limited number of disciplines and all our search consultants are specialized
