Executive Search
Our proprietary search and implementation process
involves our clients each step of the way.
At Spirit Consulting, we help our clients leverage their talent management in order to ensure they’re meeting their business’s full potential. Through our proprietary search process, we deliver only the most exceptional executive and managerial candidates: business leaders who can onboard rapidly and seamlessly and adept at navigating the complexities inherent to the global economy.
Executive Search
Our recruiting efforts fit seamlessly with our client’s internal processes and align with their organizational strategies. We provide our clients with well-placed, top-quality candidates by way of the following services:
- Conduct meetings with our client’s senior leadership & search team to determine their vision for, expectations of, and commitment to the recruiting efforts.
- Set clear expectations for all search stakeholders from the beginning of the search by leveraging a Statement of Work that includes a service level agreement, competitor and target research, a sample candidate matrix, timeline, key deliverable dates, rewritten job description, and interview questionnaire.
- Identify a target market for pursuing candidates with the appropriate skill mix and educational background.
- Conduct candidate screening, behavioral interviews, reference, background, and financial checks, and I/O psychology analysis.
- Present detailed interview results in matrix form on each candidate to narrow the field to the top finalists.
- Assist in determining job offers, including salary negotiations, benefits, and commencement dates.
- Utilize an I/O psychologist to onboard and integrate the hired candidate into their new position through their first year of employment to maximize their effectiveness
