SEARCH

Most executive search consultancies claim to be able to serve any industry equally well, pointing to their methodologies and diligence as a guarantee for quality and success in identifying and placing skilled candidates. In practice, many consultancies rely heavily on their existing databases and networks for success. The "from scratch" approach can disappoint in a dynamic and diverse marketplace like Business Intelligence where high-quality candidates are not immediately visible. Their services often depend on researchers whose understanding of the demands of such a highly specialist area are variable, sometimes poor.

Intelligent Resources takes an informed approach. Breadth and depth of market knowledge are coupled with an expert holistic understanding of the structure and dynamics of individual companies both within and on the fringes of our marketplace.

The process of candidate identification draws on this expertise, enabling us to target organisations, disciplines and personality types best suited to a role from a position of unrivalled industry knowledge.

SELECTION BY ADVERTISING

In any marketplace, much of the potential candidate base is latent and not actively seeking a new position. Targeted advertising with well-written copy placed in the right media can stimulate candidates who may not come to a position through database or other traditional routes. In Business Intelligence, an advertising campaign can also draw relevant, skilled professionals from outside the traditional disciplines of the market.

Intelligent Resources can assist at any step of the recruitment process. Tangible help can be provided in the following areas:

	Qualified identification of suitable media, including the Internet
	Candidate alerting - automatic to candidates already registered
	Producing copy which reflects a considered assignment strategy as discussed with our client
	Candidate Screening
	Interview
	Presentation of shortlist
	Full administration including correspondence with unsuccessful candidates
	Full consultation and reporting
