Our proven methodology
FIRST
Position Specification
Our retained executive search process begins with a comprehensive behavioral job analysis to pinpoint the exact role your organization needs. We utilize the TriMetrixDNA assessment to gain deep insights into team dynamics and role requirements. Leveraging AI, we delve into industry best practices, SHRM guidelines, HR scholarly research, and compliance issues to refine our understanding of the position. With this robust foundation, we craft compelling job descriptions tailored to attract top-tier candidates, marketing them across key channels to ensure maximum reach and effectiveness.
SECOND
Sourcing & Screening
We leverage AI to craft targeted advertisements and communications for prospective candidates. Utilizing both push and pull outreach tactics, we attract and engage top talent, guiding them seamlessly through our hiring process. A custom applicant funnel is developed, with an initial screening to identify the most promising candidates. Top candidates undergo initial interviews, followed by thorough internal research, behavioral interviews, and psychometric testing. This rigorous process ensures that only the top 10% of candidates are selected for panel interviews and further evaluation.
THIRD
Selection & Placement
After identifying the top 10% of candidates, we host panel interviews to assess competency and cultural fit. Leveraging AI, we craft personalized questions that focus on key skills, job requirements, and attributes identified in high performers. Top candidates are asked to submit past work for review. We then invite 2-3 finalists for on-site interviews, role-playing exercises, and a new homework assignment. Finally, we conduct compensation negotiations and background reference checks to ensure the best fit for your organization.
A glimpse into working with us
Family-owned businesses are likely to be the oldest form of a business organization. In these businesses, the entrepreneurial spirit changes over its inheritance through generations and the need for external executive talent is common. When hiring new CEOs or executive leaders, the business must ensure that not only the new hire is qualified and experienced, but also able to merge well with the pre-established culture and values of the company. Listen to Severin Sorensen, CEO of ePraxis, cover these topics and review his scientifically proven 10-step strategy for hiring new executive talent on the Arete Coach Podcast.
