At Kimmel & Associates, we view executive recruiting as a sacred responsibility. This dedication led us to develop our 43 Steps in the Placement Process, ensuring no detail is missed.
Our primary goal is exceptional service. Our highly trained consultants manage every phase, from job order to final offer. We do the hard work necessary to maintain our commitment to recruitment excellence.
Inside the 4 Phases of Our Executive Placement Process
Phase 1: Job Offer
Taking a complete job order from the client is essential, as it influences all subsequent steps. During this phase, we gather detailed information to effectively advocate for our client in the search process. The client and recruiter will then agree on a hiring process and timeline, as well as communication procedures and feedback expectations after candidate submissions. Feedback helps to ensure a smooth and successful recruiting process.
Phase 2: Recruit
Our consultants develop a customized recruiting plan, grounded in a clear understanding of the ideal candidate profile. Our Career-Directed Approach™ to recruiting allows us to address the barriers and motivations of each candidate. Only thoroughly vetted candidates, as agreed upon in Phase 1, will be presented to ensure they align with your requirements and expectations.
In this phase, our consultants meticulously set up and manage the interview process. We take pride in thoroughly preparing both the client and candidate to ensure transparent, productive interviews. Understanding that the devil is in the details, we focus on every aspect to facilitate the best possible hire for our clients, knowing that successful onboarding begins with the first interview.
Our consultants are dedicated to guiding both the client and candidate through every step of the offer, acceptance, and start process. We take pride in preparing candidates for resignation and anticipating potential counteroffers from their current employers. Additionally, we encourage our clients to maintain contact and enthusiasm with their new hires. This phase is critical, as effective retention begins now.
The Key to Successful Placements: Live Feedback
Client feedback is crucial in determining if a potential candidate’s experience, skillset, and cultural fit are right for the organization.
Timely feedback helps us to continue to cultivate the interest of any candidates whom our clients would like to pursue, and to amend our search criteria as needed.
