Executive Search Services
Preliminary Consultation Our search begins with personal interviews with you and others who play a critical role in the search to thoroughly familiarize ourselves with your organization and the position. We become knowledgeable about your organization’s performance standards, management style, and the chemistry of the specific work group.
In-depth HR Briefing We meet with appropriate people in the Human Resources Department to review prior experience in recruiting for the position, so that we understand internal processes and any challenges that might face the search.
Position Profile Working closely with you, we development benchmarks for candidate qualifications. This helps ensure that we know the relevant experience needed, core competencies, desired personality traits and work habits, as well as any other attributes, to attract the candidates most likely to fit the position.
Recruitment Strategy Our extensive contacts in the nonprofit community and rigorous sourcing techniques enable us to reach individuals who may be ideal candidates, even though they may not currently be seeking new employment. We work closely with you to identify additional likely sources of candidates, especially within your immediate area or surrounding region.
Thorough Screening Based on our decades of experience in nonprofit management and fundraising, we carefully review resumes for significant accomplishments, relevant experiences, and well-honed skills. We conduct preliminary interviews with the best candidates to narrow down the field to the top ones for you to meet.
Reference Checking Our approach includes personal discussions with multiple references to review the top candidates' technical capabilities, work and management style, and ability to effectively interact with co-workers, volunteers, donors, and other constituents.
Pre-Interview Briefings We present our recommendations for finalists to you with extensive background information on each candidate. Prior to the interview with you, we prepare each finalist candidate, thoroughly briefing them about the position and your organization to increase the effectiveness of the interview.
Post-Interview Briefings Immediately after the finalists’ interviews, we contact you and the candidate to garner critical perceptions and facilitate the decision-making process. We continue to assist you and the finalist during the process to ensure a smooth and successful hire.
