Executive Assistant Recruitment

Our Approach and Recruitment Process for Executive Assistant Roles

Keller is a widely recognized leader in the field of executive recruitment. Our process is tailored to meet the recruitment needs and unique hiring factors that could affect the success of the placement.

We begin our executive search by gaining more information about your specific needs, company culture, and what you’re looking for in potential employees. After evaluating, we identify gaps in your executive team, including where an executive assistant might be needed. These allow us to build a candidate profile, which will serve as our guide during the search.

Keller’s dedicated recruiters then launch into an extensive process to source the best candidates for the position. Our goal is to find experienced administrative talent who also represent diverse backgrounds as part of our dedication to inclusivity in any business. To do this, we leverage our wide network of connections, which allows us to connect with high-caliber local and international candidates with the skills needed to thrive in the role and lead the business to success. Additionally, we utilize specialized tools and software such as candidate tracking, talent analytics, and tailored diversity hiring strategies to improve our recruiting efficiency and reach highly qualified professionals.

All candidates who meet our hiring requirements are required to undergo a rigorous assessment, which includes:

• Background and reference checks
• Criminal checks
• Advanced psychometric testing

Professionals who meet or exceed the hiring criteria during the assessment phase are shortlisted and presented to the client for final interview and hiring.

Why Our Process Is Superior

Keller’s tailored approach to executive recruitment offers superior results, primarily due to our commitment to quality and reliability as well as diversity. Our recruiters will never assess a candidate based solely on biases such as their age, belief, gender identity, or race.

Furthermore, our partnership with NPA Worldwide grants us access to a network of talented candidates, including passive leaders who may not be actively looking for new job opportunities but are open to the right opportunity if it aligns with their career goals and values. These candidates are often difficult to reach through traditional recruitment channels, giving you a competitive edge in attracting the best professionals for critical roles.

The Role of Executive Assistants

The role of executive assistant (EA) has become more prestigious throughout the years. Once called secretaries, executive assistants used to be solely responsible for administrative support. In today’s day and age, EAs play a vital role in any company and work alongside a group of C-suite executives to ensure that the business runs smoothly.

Some of the responsibilities of an executive assistant include overseeing expenses, arranging travel, managing diaries and schedules, scheduling appointments, and a wide range of administrative tasks. It is vital for executive assistants to operate professionally and efficiently, with the ability to liaise with a larger team of professionals.
