Elite Executive Search in the Capital of Europe

Our Executive Recruitment Process

Keller’s current recruitment model has come a long way since our inception, when we relied on a generic, one-size-fits-all method. The flaw in this approach was that it failed to consider how each customer differed from the next, which proved ill for one placement in particular.

In this instance, we were tasked by a prominent client to help hire an individual for an executive-level role. While we believed our cut-and-dry method would be sufficient, it became clear this was not the case when the candidate we recommended clashed with our client’s existing management team over differences in leadership style.

Though this was not the outcome we sought for this placement, the experience demonstrated the importance of a candidate’s cultural fit in addition to their technical expertise. As a result, we revamped our entire recruitment strategy to better serve our customers’ distinct requirements. Following this change, our company saw a significant rise in successful placements and solidified our position as a premier executive recruitment agency in Brussels.

In an effort to maintain our ranking among the world’s best executive search firms, we are committed to continuous growth and improvement and emphasize staying up-to-date with emerging trends, research, and concerns in the field.

Our Services

Keller offers tailored recruitment services to assist businesses in acquiring the best talent for their teams so they can achieve new heights of success.

To do this, our consultants work closely with our client’s human resources departments to get to know their hiring practices and what sets them apart from competitors in the same field.

Additionally, we help companies overcome other challenges related to executive search and recruitment, including, but not limited to, organizational transformation, leadership transitions, and mergers and acquisitions.

Our Hiring Process

The first step we take when commencing any new project is interviewing our client to establish a comprehensive candidate profile. This is to clarify the technical expertise and interpersonal skills they desire in potential candidates, as well as position specifics such as the role responsibilities, employment type, and possible challenges associated with the role.

Next, we utilize our extensive candidate database and NPAworldwide membership to locate professionals who align with the established criteria. We also leverage sophisticated applicant-tracking technology to sift through candidates according to our client’s requirements, making our search faster and more efficient.

Following the identification of a suitable talent pool, we conduct a thorough assessment of each applicant to determine their alignment with the hiring company’s needs, goals, and culture. This encompasses psychometric tests, behavioral interviews, and detailed background checks covering professional references, career history, and criminal records.

Our meticulous vetting procedure culminates in a shortlist of candidates who we present to our client’s hiring team for final consideration.

At Keller, our ability to source the right talent for a variety of roles is possible due to our deep understanding of local market dynamics, skilled recruiters, extensive connections, and superior quality standards.
