T – for Talent
Ability to attract inactive candidates. Honest and open in communication. A never give up; attitude.
When the markets are more competitive than ever, it is crucial for companies to employ the best talent possible. As we are connected to new high quality talent on a daily basis, we know their full background, as we meet them to understand their strengths and weaknesses, their key drivers and motivations.
This method of communication, and the role of the mentor that we take, allows us to identify ways to improve strengths and weaknesses, so that candidates are fully prepared for career progression.
R – for Research
Tailored and strategic approach towards people. Sensitive handling of confidential issues. Honest and open communication.
As recruitment is a business that involves people from different cultures, backgrounds and positions, it can be a somewhat sensitive matter. We therefore have a Code of Ethics that we always follow – we always approach a wide range of candidates, targeting already established contacts and companies agreed in the strategy. To us, every candidate is exceptional but all are treated equally and individually.
Every project is tailored to the specific needs of our client, their culture and values, as you may have only one candidate who is finally the best match. We also work on attracting inactive candidates, presenting them with new options for future development.
U – for Understanding
20 years of experience and market trend awareness. Understanding of Client motivation and needs. Possess “know how”.
We acknowledge that each company has its own work culture and dynamic. The role of a true headhunter is not only about finding a good professional but also about identifying with a certain company. It is essential to understand their personality, to understand in what environment and under what kind of management structure they perform best in.
In addition to this, working closely with the client allows us to fully understand the correct approach, and necessary requirements, to work freely in assisting them with their brief.
S – for Solution
Out-of-the-box thinking. Creative approach to business challenges. Ability to provide solutions in line with your needs.
Our aim is to find solutions to individual situations, whilst being flexible and adopting an “out of the box” thinking style. Being flexible with our time and approach, allows us to be creative and to meet the expectations of the clients. In order to fully understand and offer the best solution to our client, we work with the same person during the whole process. This ensures consistency, as meeting the same person in the company and having understood all details of the client’s way of working does; the briefing session co-ordinates the whole search process and meets and assesses all the potential candidates. We then prepare a weekly report on all activities taken, to make our client aware of the progress made and to gain confidence.
T – for Timing
Efficiency available from the start. Results are evident within 4 weeks Delivery on time.
Good timing takes great effort, backstage communication and planning and, at GE Hunter, we are key advocates of this strategy.
Having strong resources at hand, and following the agreed strategy, we conduct our research by quickly identifying people who are potentially interested in the position, from the market, functional, and geographical, points of view. Based on these activities, we guarantee the presentation of a shortlist within 4 weeks.
The interview process is subject to employer planning and their availability to meet the candidates. However, it is our objective that this should be completed within 2 weeks. It is our obligation to meet all deadlines and we take pride in actually delivering on time.
