HOW DO LEADING EXECUTIVE SEARCH COMPANIES FIND
CANDIDATES?

We get a lot of questions like this one, and
there's a good reason for it. Executive search is
a specialised recruitment form to lure highly
qualified candidates for senior management
positions. In most cases, it is utilised to fill
strategically significant roles such as CEO, CFO,
COO, HRD, and CIO. Most businesses find hiring
difficult, particularly at the executive level.
They are interested in learning the key to
successfully locating excellent candidates. Given
the scarcity of available talent, it is
incredibly challenging today. This question
will focus on our discussion in the following
paragraphs as we investigate how executive
director search firms locate potential
candidates. Executive search requires working
with a third party, usually an executive search
firm. They can find and hire the best senior
executive talent on the market to meet your
business's needs. Relationships are what drive
executive search. An executive search firm will
collaborate with you to figure out what you need
and advise you on the best way to find the best
talent. It is based on research, so a search
firm will be paid a retainer fee upfront to do a
lot of market mapping to study the market and
find a benchmark for skills/roles and salaries. A
director search firm will usually know a lot
about and have access to board directors and
senior executives in various industries and
positions. This lets them build a large pool of
top executive talent.
