Selection

Selection starts by ensuring we look through the same eyes as our clients.

As part of our initial client meeting we will define 15-20 key criteria that the client requires of the candidate. We use this as the basis of our discussions throughout the search phase.

Once our initial list has been narrowed down through exploratory conversations to those we seek to interview face to face, we will objectively score these candidates against these agreed criteria.

We have found enormous benefit in our clients understanding why we reach our selection choices. Equally, we are able to communicate back to unsuccessful candidates in a positive way, about how we reached our decisions. Objectivity is the key to a fair and transparently open process.

Every candidate we shortlist for client interview will have been face to face interviewed and reference checked.

We aim to provide 4-5 candidates for every process, who can be seen consecutively by the client, so comparisons are easier to reach.

We do not send individual CVs in the hope that one may get lucky.
