Executive search
What is executive search (headhunting) and when is it suitable for recruitment?
Executive search service, also known as headhunting, involves in-depth and thorough exploration of the job market, as well as the professional evaluation of potential candidates in terms of their skills, motivation, and alignment with the organizational culture of a prospective employer. This recruitment method is particularly valuable when searching for candidates for high-level positions or acquiring unique specialists. It is also a suitable approach when the position is in a challenging location or may require relocation.
If you want to hire the best-matched candidate for a high-level position or are looking for an expert while maintaining confidentiality throughout the recruitment process, consider using the executive search service.

How will the recruitment process look like?
1
Brief
We kickstart the recruitment process by creating a brief. During a meeting with the Client, we thoroughly study their needs and requirements for the specific recruitment. We establish expectations for Candidates, their profiles, recruitment criteria, and the employer’s offer. As a result, a document is created, compiling all this information and serving as the basis for the search for suitable Candidates.
2
Benchmark Candidate
After 2 – 3 weeks, we present the Client with a Benchmark Candidate – a specific individual who, in the executive search firm’s opinion, meets all the requirements of the potential employer. Presenting a Benchmark Candidate aims to ensure that the Candidate profile aligns with the expectations of the potential employer or to allow for a possibility to ‘calibrate’ those expectations. Presenting a Benchmark Candidate before further search allows for refining the Client’s expectations and saves time.
3
Reporting During the Process
Once a week, we provide the Client with the status of the recruitment project. This way, the Client stays informed about the progress of the process and it’s stages.
4
Presentation of Candidates
The consultant presents to the Client the recommended Candidates after previous meetings with them. These are at least 3 individuals selected from the long list.
5
Candidate Discussion, Selection of the preferred One
The presented Candidates are thoroughly discussed with the Client. Ultimately, a front runner is chosen, who is then invited to meet with the potential employer.
6
Final Negotiations with the Winning Candidate
The Client engages in final negotiations with the winning candidate, supported by the lead consultant. As a result, an agreement is reached between the Candidate and the employer.
7
Maintaining a Relationship with the Candidate after Hiring
After the Candidate is hired, we stay in touch with them for some time to support their adaptation to the new organization.

Talent Mapping
What is Talent Mapping?
Market mapping is a tool that assists in making personnel changes within a company. This can include recruitment, succession planning, internal promotions, or team restructuring. In such scenarios, having reliable and detailed information about the market situation is crucial. Key data that is needed includes:
