Direct Search (Headhunting)
If you are looking for professionals for a specific field or you'd like to lure over middle-level or top managers to your company, we recommend direct search. It is a discreet procedure, where the given position is not announced via advertisements, but we get to the convenient candidates through references and our knowledge of the market. We should not forget that they are most likely not active job-seekers, so it has a great importance to work out the motivation package together with the client. We ask for a detailed description of the position, regarding every professional and personal requirement, which is important for our client. We make the list of the preferred companies from which the client would welcome candidates, and a "prohibitive list" about those companies from which we mustn't call candidates (e.g. the partners). After these we get in contact with the candidates without revealing our principal. Then we restrict the number of potential candidates and on a personal interview we check their CVs, the authenticity of their references and we also analyse their professional knowledge and personal attributes. After the interviews, we review and send you the CVs of those 2-3 candidates, who are perfect to fill the vacancy in every aspect. We arrange the personal introductions for the date(s) that you've appointed. After you've chosen those, who are the most suitable for the position, we inform all the candidates about the decision. This step should not be neglected, as it will reflect badly on a company, if it leaves their candidate without an answer - whether it is positive or negative. Especially in those cases, when some of the rejected candidates will later be considered for another position.
