A Superior, Professional Way to Identify Superior, Professional Candidates
When you need to locate and bring aboard a key executive, you have many options, but nearly all present drawbacks. Associates and acquaintances can not give your executive search efforts the high-level, national scope required. Even employment agencies and contingency firms tend to operate within a given geographical area, limiting the scope of the search. A well-qualified national executive search firm gives you the best opportunity to find a well-qualified candidate. What should you look for in a national executive search firm?
Five basic criteria cannot be compromised:
- National perspective, that is the ability and willingness to identify the best candidates available anywhere, at any time.
- High professional and ethical standards, assuring you of confidentiality, honesty in all practices and objectivity in all recommendations.
- A commitment to work exclusively on your behalf, not that of candidates. (This distinguishes executive search firms from employment agencies/contingency firms.)
- Strong familiarity with the latest tools, methodologies available, plus sound analytical and technical skills.
- Solid, sustained experience in executive search.
We at Jonas, Walters & Associates, Inc. suggest one additional criterion. We don't pretend that this criterion is objective. We believe we are the only national executive search firm to meet it. A program that integrates the skills of three different professionals assigned to each search. The end product is the broadest possible search with a precisely focused result.
