- Contingency recruitment is a flexible and proactive hiring approach that leverages research, targeted outreach, and extensive databases, alongside advertising and international networks if needed. It attracts both active and passive candidates, ensuring a diverse talent pool. All candidates are pre-screened for skills, personality, and cultural fit before being presented. While timelines are less rigid compared to retained search, this method is ideal for roles requiring specialized skills or bulk hiring at levels below senior management.
- Retained Search is a highly structured and efficient recruitment method designed to secure top talent within a set timeframe. A dedicated search consultant conducts in-depth market research, identifying and mapping qualified individuals from target companies. After an initial review, the most suitable candidates are shortlisted and proactively headhunted. They undergo thorough screening and interviews before being presented for final selection. This approach is ideal for mid-to-senior-level hires where specific skills, experience, and discretion are critical, ensuring a confidential and targeted recruitment process.
- Project Search is a flexible recruitment solution that blends elements of retained search to address multiple urgent hiring needs efficiently. This approach allows resources to be reallocated as priorities shift, ensuring that the most critical roles are filled first. Candidates are proactively headhunted to match specific requirements, making it ideal for businesses needing to hire multiple professionals within a short timeframe while maintaining a strategic and targeted search process.
