S&S work as a tightly woven team leveraging off the diverse sectoral experience of our consultants while screening candidates from different industries. The selection process is as follows:

• We design a recruitment strategy that is unique to each assignment, thinking creatively about where we will find professionals with the skills and experience that will help the client achieve his goals.
• We learn what issues have led to the search, how the position fits in with the client's future goals, and what the client hopes the new executive will accomplish during his tenure.
• We draft a position description for the search leaders to review and approve. The description outlines the challenges of the position, experience and characteristics needed to meet those challenges, and long-term objectives the new executive will be asked to achieve.
• And, at the end of the discovery period, we develop a need-based recruitment strategy that launches the process into the next phase.

2. We normally accept an assignment with an exclusivity period of 4-8 weeks.

• During this period we conduct a focussed search from our database and also track down appropriate profiles from industry.
• In addition to personal contact and telephonic discussions, our most efficient methods, we expand our research and outreach using mail and targeted advertising. Contact is made resulting in a preliminary shortlist.
• Before we present a prospect to the client, we review resumes in detail, share the job description and materials about the client with the candidate, conduct telephonic and in-person interviews. The prospective candidate will have carefully reviewed the position description, organization´s materials, and expressed a strong interest in pursuing the position.
• We prepare candidate assessment documents and interview materials for the search leaders.

3. We coordinate the meetings between the client and the candidate. 4. We assist the client in conducting the reference checks / integrity validations.
