We talk to the right ones.

We are street smart and we like the sell. We tell your story, we detail your company’s uniqueness to the right people…and we do it with business sense, depth and a little bit of humour.

We get the strongest candidates that the market offers in front of you.

And fast.

ASSESS

Controlling for Emotions

We leverage good judgement by controlling for emotions in candidate assessment. We run every candidate through advanced, predictive psychometric testing. Success in any job is largely predicted by a combination of only three factors: aptitude, orderliness and industriousness.

So we measure those.

SECURE

Failure to integrate is a process failure from search start. We control for that risk. Two weeks before start date your new finance hire begins an 8-week integration coaching program provided by our coaching partner. Recruiting, integrating and retaining strong talent is the #1 business challenge across all industries.

So let’s get it right.

The Art – Telling Your Story

We are street smart and we like the hunt. We tell your story, detail your company’s uniqueness to the right people…and we do it with business sense, depth and a little humour. We get the strongest candidates that the market offers in front of you, and fast. We tell your story.

The right people need to hear a compelling pitch:

  • We deliver strong messages, from an understanding of your industry, to your company’s unique profile, to the role’s day-to-day deliverables.
  • We are business people, we are industrious and we like the hunt

You get one good shot. Who’s telling your story?

The Science – Controlling for Emotions

We have good judgement and so do you. We leverage that gift of judgement with advanced, predictive psychometric testing to eliminate bias, the #1 recruitment pitfall and part of the human condition. We control for emotions.

Cognitive aptitude is one of the most accurate predictors of job success:

2Xmore than personal interviews
3Xmore than experience
4Xmore than education

In fact aptitude, orderliness and industriousness are by far the top three predictors of job success.

So that’s what we invest in measuring and assessing.

The Home Run – Integrating Well

Most people sense if it’s a long-term match by week six. A highly positive integration foretells longevity, whereas an integration failure has a negative impact across the company and destroys value. We control for integration risk.

A positive integration drives longevity with an organization:

  • The first 6 weeks foretell retention
  • Organizational acceptance can be accelerated
  • Counter-intuitive behaviours can easily harm or derail an integration
  • Separate from company onboarding

Ensure integration success while mitigating risk.
