Headhunters Calgary

Our Process

Our staffing and executive recruiting agency in Calgary is tailor-made to meet and exceed the specific needs of each client. Our team boasts extensive qualifications (both academic and professional). Over the years, each of Keller’s recruiters has built up advanced technical knowledge, extensive recruitment expertise, and specialized headhunting skills over the years.

Our dedicated team of informed headhunters and recruiters is also proficient in a wide range of services outside of executive search, such as top-tier consulting services. We are able to assist in the process of developing better strategies for increased employee engagement and retention.

Unlike many other recruitment agencies, Keller’s staffing solutions are expertly tailored to meet our clients’ needs.

Our Process

We begin our executive search process by gaining an in-depth understanding of our client, their organization, and their company culture. We also aim to identify what our clients expect from prospective team members and the unique challenges faced by the company.

Once we know what is required from job seekers, these valuable insights are used in an exhaustive executive search process to identify the best-suited executives available. This process is especially important when attempting to identify the right hire for difficult-to-fill positions, or finding executives that may be difficult to source otherwise.

To complete our search, we create a shortlist of experienced talent which are then screened. We perform extensive screenings such as background and criminal record checks, as well as confirming references to ensure that each professional we provide our clients with is adequately qualified for the available job.

Why Keller Uses a Customized Headhunting Method

Over the years, Keller’s team members have gained a wealth of first-hand experiences that have helped to shape our executive search methodology. Keller is known for our tailored approach, but many of our staff members still remember when we made use of a more generic strategy. We also remember the specific experience that helped us change that strategy for the better.

When we first began operating as an executive recruitment agency, our client pool was limited and the generic approach we had used seemed to yield acceptable results. However, with this moderate success came growth and we were soon approached by a larger client to assist them in filling an executive position.

We launched the search process using our cookie-cutter approach, believing that it would result in a good outcome.

However, after a few months, it became clear that the placed candidate was not suited to the client’s company culture, and they were unable to integrate into the existing leadership team. Unbeknownst to us when we made the placement, this is a common result when employing a standardized recruitment approach.

Since that failed placement, Keller has been honing and refining our approach to recruitment. It taught us that the one-fits-all method we had been using, while moderately successful for smaller clients, had many limitations when used at a bigger scale. The experience also taught us the value of using a tailored approach that we can customize to the unique needs of each client.

By changing our approach, we have been able to assist countless companies in Calgary and around the globe. Our approach has also inspired other agencies to follow suit, influencing the executive search industry and shaping the way it is understood worldwide.

As a result, our name has become interchangeable with top-notch headhunting.

Keller’s Guarantee

Keller boasts exceptional success rates when placing clients. Our Calgary recruiters achieve this through a thorough executive search process and a rigorous screening process when sourcing candidates.

However, we acknowledge that even the most tailored recruitment process may not yield a successful outcome 100% of the time, and that there may be rare cases where our clients are not satisfied with the placement made through our services.

For this reason, Keller offers each of our clients the opportunity to replace their candidate within the first 90 days of hiring them, if said candidate is unable to fulfill the duties of their role or if they fail to integrate well into the client’s existing leadership team.
