Page 2 of 15 THREE-PHASE PROJECT APPROACH FOR SUCCESS SUCCESS STARTS WITH A PLAN. Our approach to executive recruitment is a key reason we are a recognized leader in public sector executive search. Our executive search process is designed to provide our clients with the full range of services required to ensure the ultimate selection is uniquely suited to the agency’s needs. Our search process includes the following phases. Phase I: The first critical step is to work with your search committee or appointing authority to clarify the preferred future direction of your community or agency, identify specific challenges your organization is likely to face and, ultimately, the personal and professional qualities your community or agency requires of its key executives and senior managers. Phase II: The recruitment process is very aggressive. We realize the ideal candidates are very often not actively seeking a new position. That is why we take a very aggressive approach in identifying and recruiting the best available candidates. Using a variety of methods, we are able to develop a quality applicant pool for each search we conduct. Phase III: Finally, the selection of the best available candidate requires the use of tools that have been carefully designed to evaluate each candidate against the personal and professional qualities identified by the search committee. For that reason, we tailor our selection techniques to your specific requirements.
