Keller is known for helping clients around the globe identify, recruit, and hire the right talent for their organization. We also provide ongoing support and strategies for retaining said talent. In this way, we provide our clients with the employees and tools needed to become global leaders in their fields.
Keller consultants follow a trusted process during executive search engagements. At the start of the search process, our consultants meet with the hiring executives and stakeholders to discuss what they are expecting from candidates for the open role. The consultants will also take the time to understand firsthand the management style and work culture in the organization.
Once all hiring requirements have been established, our consultants will draft a description of the open position and create candidate specification documents detailing the core competencies and soft skills required of each prospect.
At the start of the search phase, Keller consultants will turn to our network of contacts for any candidate referrals. We will also utilize numerous other recruitment channels, both traditional and unconventional, to find any prospects who meet the requirements.
Once a list of candidates has been created, we will contact each talent and schedule more in-depth interviews with the aim of understanding their career history, work performances, and soft skills. Those who do not fit the requirement for the open role are then removed from the talent pool.
Our consultants present the client with the shortlisted talents. The client can then schedule and conduct their own interviews and evaluations to determine who would be the best fit for their organization.
At Keller, we do not consider our services a success if the talent leaves after a short period or if they clash with other executives due to differences in management styles. Should such cases occur, we offer to redo the search.
