FAQ
What are the steps involved in the Executive Search process?

1. Project Consultation: In the project consultation phase, we begin with in-depth discussions about your industry and company. Together, we set clear objectives for the project and define the position, its requirements, and the terms. This phase lays the foundation for the entire process.

2. Market and Company Analysis: Market research is crucial for identifying potential candidates. We carefully analyze target markets and leverage our extensive network. This provides valuable insights and recommendations, helping us compile a list of target companies and candidates.

3. Phone Interviews: Next, we conduct phone interviews to get to know the candidates better. We match their profiles with the requirements and assess their education, career path, technical expertise, mobility, and interest in the position. These interviews help us create a shortlist of promising candidates.

4. Personal Interviews: Candidates who successfully pass the phone interviews are invited for in-person interviews. Here, we evaluate their technical, social, management, and leadership skills, as well as their motivation. These steps help us select the best possible candidates.

5. Candidate Presentation: After the personal interviews, we confidentially present the selected candidates to you. We facilitate discussions between you and the candidates and obtain references to ensure you can make an informed decision.

6. Project Completion and Aftercare: Finally, we support you through the contract signing and beyond. We offer assistance with contract and compensation matters and conduct feedback sessions with you and the candidates to ensure everything runs smoothly. Our aftercare guarantees that your new hire is set up for success.
