Ottawa Recruiters for Businesses in the Canadian Capital

Our Executive Recruitment Process

Keller is an international provider of efficient solutions to the complex recruitment challenges our clients face in today’s dynamic business landscape. Our recruitment consultants are experts at sourcing top talent for job opportunities in the Ottawa area and beyond. Their qualifications include Certified Personnel Consultant (CPC) and a collective 20 years of experience under their belts.

Our recruitment process takes all the guess work out of our clients’ hands and makes hiring qualified candidates simple and streamlined. It combines our recruiters’ shared expertise and the lessons learned from past mistakes. As some of our team members might recall, Keller initially utilized a generic recruitment approach that did not consider our clients’ individual needs.

While the initial results of this method proved satisfactory, we soon realized it had limitations that would hinder us from achieving higher levels of success. These limitations became abundantly clear during an executive-level search for a prominent client. In brief, while the candidate we recommended matched the job description, we failed to procure someone who aligned with the company culture. This led to clashes in management style between the new hire and our client’s existing team.

Ultimately, the placement was a failure, forcing us to reevaluate our methodology. This meant switching to a more customer-oriented approach that was more cognizant of our client’s unique needs. Following this change, we saw a notable increase in the number of successful placements we were making and a rise in our brand’s ranking among the world’s elite executive recruitment firms.

To maintain our reputation as a forerunner in executive search and recruitment, we are committed to continuous learning and staying up-to-date about the industry’s most recent findings, developments, and concerns.

Our Services

Keller provides world-class staffing services specifically designed to meet our clientele’s human resources needs.

Our other offerings include, but are not limited to, succession planning, compensation consulting, employee coaching, and recruitment placement outsourcing (RPO).

Our Hiring Process

We begin every new assignment by interviewing the important decision-makers at our client’s organization to gather insights about the nature of the search. For example, which skills and personality traits are most desired in prospective candidates, what the job involves, and whether it is a permanent, temporary, part-time, or fixed-term placement.

We use this information as a brief for the search for the ideal candidate, along with our extensive contacts and state-of-the-art recruiting technologies. We use the latter to pinpoint candidates across education, skill set, and location, while our network allows us to reach professionals who may not respond to traditional recruitment methods.

Once we have identified a list of promising candidates for our client’s requirements, they are subject to our thorough vetting process. This is to confirm their alignment with the job search criteria and our client’s corporate culture. We also perform comprehensive background and reference checks to verify each candidate’s career history and criminal record before passing them on to our client’s hiring managers for their consideration.
