Search Process: Weeks 3 - 12
Prospective Candidate Interviews
As the search continues, we hold face-to-face meetings with potential candidates anywhere in the world to assess their qualifications and motivation. At this stage, it still may be desirable for the client's name to remain confidential, but executives at all levels almost invariably are willing to enter into preliminary discussions with us.
Reference Checking
As early as possible in the search process, we conduct extensive confidential references on all candidates. We contact people who are acquainted with the candidate to get in-depth comments on the candidate's management ability, technical competency, integrity and personal skills and characteristics that are relevant.
