Our Headhunting Process
Our Services
At Keller, we are committed to helping companies achieve long-term success through our stellar headhunting services. Our services are tailored to the specific needs of each of our clients, breaking away from the generic one-fits-all approach to headhunting and recruitment many agencies use.
In our nearly two decades of collective personal and professional experience, we have come to understand that these types of generic approaches to recruitment often fail to meet client requirements and result in subpar placements. Instead, Keller offers customized headhunting solutions unlike any other.At Keller, we value the privacy and security of our clients.
Our services are conducted with the utmost respect for the safety and confidentiality of our clientele, and we commit ourselves to responsible and ethical practices in everything we do.
Our Process
To ensure that our searches are successful, we begin our process by identifying the business’ needs and goals, its organizational culture, the role requirements, and what is expected from the candidate.
Once these parameters have been established, the next step for our team is sourcing industry experts who meet, or perhaps even exceed, our client’s hiring requirements.
All candidates we identify during this search step go through a rigorous assessment and screening process, which involves extensive background, criminal, and reference checks. We also assess candidates for other, more intricate factors, including their cultural alignment, management style, motivational drivers, personality types, and work ethic.
This results in a shortlist of talent ideally suited to our client’s needs. The final step in our process is providing said client with this shortlist so that they may conduct interviews and make the final hiring decision.
