Leader In Executive Search Firms/Proven Process That Works

 |
|
- Involve the internal and external constituencies of the institution to discuss what is needed in new leadership.
- Work in concert with the search advisory committee to develop a profile for the position which is recommended to the board for approval.
- Assist the public information and human resources offices in developing advertisements and brochures.
- Recruit candidates to the position. Recruiting is one of the most overlooked aspects of the search. The best candidates are not perusing the trade publications looking for jobs. Recognizing that advertising the position is not enough, we recruit individuals who are successful, effective leaders. Thanks to our extensive contacts throughout the country, we have an outstanding record in recruiting excellent candidates to the presidency.
- Screen applicants. Our vast experience serves committees well as they begin to narrow the pool of applicants.
- Hone the list of finalists to be interviewed on campus.
- Check references thoroughly and extensively. We share everything we know with the board; there will be no surprises once the search is completed.
- Organize, while working in concert with the board appointed search liaison, an inclusive interview process for each candidate that allows all constituents of the college – faculty, staff, administrators, students and community – to meet the candidates and to provide feedback to the board.
- Help in any way that is useful: providing sample questions and interview schedules, helping with contract negotiations. We are available continually throughout the process.
