Executive Selection: Identifying the candidate with the “right stuff”

Our approach

How do you select a candidate to hire for your business?  Are you persuaded by experience, impressed by brainpower and credentials, or influenced by a strong first impression?

Our comprehensive selection process moves beyond the glimmer of impressive credentials, storied experiences, and first impressions to identify the candidate “right” for your organization.

We assess a candidate from a number of perspectives including what is the candidate’s level of emotional intelligence.

Implementing our approach

We collaborate with the company leadership to identify specific competencies the candidate must possess to successfully drive the culture, mission, and vision.

We evaluate the candidate using a number of assessment measures including a test of emotional intelligence.

Each candidate will complete a behavioral event interview, which provides a solid glimpse of the candidate’s emotional competencies and how the candidate operates with day-to-day business pressures.
 

We cross match the candidate’s competencies with the needs and competencies
 of the organization.

We facilitate the candidate’s integration into the company.
