Swiss Excellence in Executive Search

Our Executive Recruitment Process

Keller’s hiring practices have changed over time. When we first started operating, we employed a one-size-fits-all approach that overlooked our client organizations’ unique staffing requirements and workplace dynamics.

Originally, we thought this traditional recruitment model would suffice, until a failed executive search for a prominent client revealed our oversight. This incident taught us that a candidate’s cultural fit was just as important as their professional qualifications.

Following this eye-opening experience, we overhauled our entire recruitment strategy to cater to our customers’ unique recruitment needs. This shift led to an increase in the number of successful placements we were making and strengthened our position as a top executive recruitment agency in Geneva.

To ensure we remain at the top of our game, we embrace continuous growth and improvement and prioritize staying informed about current trends, research, and challenges in the industry.

Our Services

Keller creates bespoke staffing services aimed at delivering the best candidates to our customers to help propel their businesses forward.

To achieve this, our consultants collaborate closely with our customers’ human resources teams to understand their hiring processes and what differentiates them from their competitors.

We also offer a range of supportive business services in addition to executive search and recruitment to assist businesses during periods of growth and change. This could be during leadership transitions, mergers and acquisitions, and other organizational changes.

Our Hiring Process

We start each new assignment with a consultation between our team and the key leaders at the client company to find out the requirements they seek in potential candidates. This meeting covers both the preferred technical and soft skills the role demands while also clarifying the nature of the position (e.g., permanent or temporary), duties, and potential obstacles.

Next, we leverage our affiliation with NPAworldwide and large network of talented job seekers to identify candidates who match the client’s specifications. To accelerate and streamline our search, we use advanced candidate tracking and recruitment software that helps us filter candidates according to the client’s needs.

Once we have identified a pool of potential matches, we vet every individual to ascertain their compatibility with the client’s work culture alongside their professional abilities. We conduct competency-based interviews, psychometric testing, and background investigations into each candidate’s career record, professional references, and criminal history.

The outcome is a curated list of candidates who we recommend to the client’s hiring manager for final interviews.
