Seeking a High Performer?

NEEDS ASSESSMENT:

Before a search can begin Perkins Professional Search takes a very detailed approach to evaluate the actual search and potential candidates. Our philosophy is to work with clients and candidates who want to create a long-term strategic alliance with our firm.

  • The first step is meeting the client to determine the specifications of the role. This is a critical part in the relationship, it allows both parties to determine a customized strategy for each search. From this, a detailed job profile is created. We work with our clients to discover the key elements about their organization. We clearly identify your organizational goals, core values, culture and strategy
  • We determine the specific skills sets and candidate credentials that are required for success in your company. We want to know the attributes you feel are important in your prospective employee.
  • We establish and make the client aware of the process, time frame and guidelines that we adhere to when identifying  potential candidates.

Candidate Facilitation:

  • Candidate Search: we use our network of resources and experience in identifying the best selection of candidates for your organization.
  • Candidate Censoring: this is the initial assessment phase of the candidates. We conduct phone interviews to identify the most promising of the talent pool. In this stage we eliminate individuals who  do not meet the criteria  identified to be a good match for the organization.
  • Interviewing: We conduct in-depth face-to-face interviews with all candidates (telephone interviews if geographically not feasible) to assess the candidates on a deeper level, uncovering their skill and knowledge base, experience, aspirations and achievements.
  • Candidate Presentation: We present you with a short list of the best potential candidates and begin introductions.
  • Interviewing Process:As mediator between you and the potential candidate(s), we schedule all communications (initial interviews, second interviews, candidate follow up and de-briefing).  After candidates have been short listed, we then conduct reference checks as per your request.
  • Presentation of Offer: We can be a catalyst during this critical stage. We provide support to both the client and candidate during the offer phase.  This  ensures that the negotiations run smoothly and that all information is clearly communicated resulting in a win for both parties.  At this stage, we also counsel candidates “why counter offers always bite back.”
  • Post Offer: We are committed to following up with both client and candidate after their start date and during their guarantee period to ensure that successful “on-boarding” is occurring and a successful match has been made.
  • Guarantee: All of this is backed by a 90-day people replacement guarantee, whereby within the first 90 days of employment, if the selected candidate is not suitable, then PPS will replace that individual at no cost.
