Frankfurt Recruiters

Our Process at the Frankfurt Recruitment Agency

Keller is a widely recognized leader in recruitment. Our long-standing reputation for quality and reliability is backed by our unique approach to executive recruitment. We offer clients a tailored solution to talent acquisition, customized to meet their nuanced hiring goals and needs.

Our recruitment process begins with a meeting with the client, their company’s HR team, senior executives, and relevant stakeholders. During this initial meeting, we identify what the company requires from the role, what they expect from candidates, and the potential challenges that come with the position.

When these factors are identified, we map the job market for candidates who meet or exceed our client’s hiring requirements. Our team utilizes a variety of tools, including candidate tracking, talent analytics, and diversity hiring strategies, to improve recruiting efficiency. We also leverage our wide network of professionals, which allows us to access local and global candidates. This includes passive candidates who may not be actively looking for a new job but are interested in career opportunities. Our access to this network is made possible by our partnership with NPA Worldwide.

All talents selected in the initial search undergo a rigorous assessment process, including:

• Extensive background and reference checks
• Criminal checks
• Advanced psychometric testing

Candidates who pass our assessment are shortlisted and presented to the client for final interviews.

Our Approach to Recruitment

During our early years, Keller utilized a cookie-cutter approach to executive recruitment. At the time, we believed a generic approach to headhunting would suffice for any placements. However, we later faced significant setbacks. Candidates we placed failed to align with our client’s vision and work culture, disrupting team dynamics and causing the candidate to fail to meet the client’s expectations.

These setbacks brought to our attention the need for an individualized approach to recruitment. Our headhunters then invested a significant amount into developing our approach.

Since then, we have established a track record of successful placements. Our approach, coupled with our attention to detail, positions us as a forerunner of the industry and allows us to maintain long-standing relationships with local clients.
