Our Process

Initial Consult: Our process commences with a deep-dive consultation to understand your organisation’s unique needs, culture and strategic goals. This foundational step ensures we’re aligned with your vision, objectives and requirements.

Strategy Design: Leveraging the insights gained, we develop a bespoke search strategy. This includes defining the role, outlining specific competencies, characteristics and background of the ideal candidate, as well as outlining the target industries and organisations from which to source.  

Market Mapping: We conduct comprehensive market mapping to identify potential candidates who meet the specific criteria of the role. This involves leveraging our deep industry networks and utilising cutting-edge technology to scan the market for top talent. 

Candidate Sourcing: Utilising our vast network and advanced candidate sourcing techniques, we actively reach out to potential candidates. This often includes tapping into a passive candidate pool, many of whom are not actively looking for new opportunities. 

External Advertising: Working with the best creatives in Australia, we develop comprehensive advertising campaigns that span a variety of channels including print and digital.

Preliminary Screening: Candidates undertake an initial screening process to ensure they meet the fundamental qualifications and experience required for the role.

Long Listing: Where appropriate, we collate a long list of potential candidates for review. The purpose of this is to review a diverse group of candidates using real-time data to refine the search an improve the candidate pool.

Comprehensive Evaluation: Shortlisted candidates then undertake a rigorous evaluation process, including in-depth interviews, competency assessments, and, where appropriate, psychometric testing. This thorough assessment helps us determine their relevant skills, work stile, aspirations, cultural fit and potential for long-term success.

Candidate Shortlist: Based on our comprehensive evaluation, we will present a carefully curated shortlist of candidates. This includes detailed profiles and insights into each candidate’s strengths, development areas and overall suitability for the role.

Candidate Preparation:  Prior to attending an interview, all candidates are thoroughly briefed and are given an opportunity to refine their interview technique, ensuring that they canpresent their relevant skills and experience in the best possible light. We also ensure that each candidate undertakes relevant research and discovery prior to their first meeting.

Interview Facilitation: We arrange interviews either on site at your office, or at our state-of-the-art facility, providing guidance and support throughout the process to ensure smooth and effective interactions.

Feedback Gathering: Post-interview, we aggregate feedback from both sides. This step is crucial for refining the second-round preparation, allowing both you and the candidates tomove forward with confidence.

Offer Preparation: Once a preferred candidate is identified, we assist in preparing an attractive offer, considering the candidate’s expectations and market standards.

Negotiation: We act as a mediator to negotiate terms, ensuring a satisfactory agreement for both parties, focusing on creating a win-win outcome. We also assist in the resignation process with the candidate if required, ensuring that they extract themselves from their current employer in a frictionless manner.

Successful Placement: With the offer accepted, we support the candidate’s resignation andtransition into their new role, facilitating a smooth onboarding process. 

Ongoing Support: Our commitment doesn’t end with a successful placement. We conduct follow-ups with both you and the candidate to ensure a successful integration and address any post-placement queries or concerns.
