Headhunters and Executive Recruiters Canada

Our Process

Our Executive Recruitment Method

In our initial executive search consultation with the client we aim to understand their expectations and requirements for recruiting leadership talent. Once these parameters have been established, the initial search for exceptional candidates can begin. We utilize our access to a global network of candidates, each as eager as the next to advance their career in a new job with the right employer. From this network, our recruiters carefully hand-pick the candidates that seem most suited.

This usually results in a large group of diverse candidates. These candidates can then be assessed further to establish whether they truly meet the client’s requirements for the role.

This assessment is extensive and involves screening candidates on several levels, including running background checks, verifying the authenticity of resumes and references, and conducting leadership assessments and personality tests.

This detailed vetting process eliminates candidates who do not meet requirements to our satisfaction or won’t make for a suitable fit for our partner. It is part of our mission to find the perfect fit between a candidate’s aspirations, expertise, and the demands of the position they are being considered for. Candidates who successfully complete our assessment are added to a shortlist.

We then present this shortlist of candidates to our clientele so that they may conduct the final interviews for their company.

Why Keller Uses A Customized Recruitment Approach

Keller’s experts have many years of first-hand experience in the field of executive recruiting. These experiences have not only taught us valuable skills, but have also shaped the methods we use during our searches. Our recruiters especially remember an experience that became a catalyst for change in our organization.

This happened during our early years in the field when we still made use of a generic recruitment method for all our clientele. We had a very limited client base at the time, and our clientele consisted mostly of smaller businesses and startups. This method of recruiting seemed to work well enough for them, and we never thought to adapt it.

However, with time, our agency began to grow, and we were engaged by a larger, more prominent business looking for a senior executive leader. Confident in our cookie-cutter approach, we applied it to this project as well. We did so in good faith, expecting it to succeed as it had for our other clients.

Unfortunately, and to our surprise, the placement we had made failed. The professional did not live up to our client’s expectations and was unable to fulfill the job requirements.

This experience taught us the many limitations and shortcomings of using a generic approach and applying it across the board. It also made for a pivotal point in our agency, prompting us to instead refine our approach and offer tailored solutions to our clientele.

As a result of shifting our approach, Keller has achieved widespread success, and we have been fortunate enough to assist Canadian businesses in finding the perfect hires for their needs.
