When to use
Technical Search
-
1.List Item 1
You have a highly specialised, hard-to-fill role that requires a comprehensive view of the market and available talent pool.
-
2.List Item 2
Traditional recruitment methods are beginning to falter and aren’t returning the desired results because they are only capturing a very small segment of the market.
-
3.List Item 3
You have an aged requirement that you can’t seem to get traction on and suspect you might need a new strategy.
-
4.List Item 4
You have multiple openings and require a streamlined process that efficiently brings numerous qualified candidates into the pipeline with speed and precision.
-
5.
Your organisation or project doesn’t have the brand appeal or pull needed to attract top talent so you would benefit from an intermediary who can engage and advocate on your behalf.
-
6.
You require a confidential approach for a sensitive role and need a partner who can conduct a comprehensive search with discretion and tact.
