WHY EXECUTIVE SEARCH IS EXPENSIVE

3.19.2020

The selection of unique specialists is the “upper class” in recruiting. It often happens that Executive Search involves the search for free performers / managers, and headhunting of those already employed.

How does Executive Search work?

The employer applies to a recruiting agency with the need for managerial or highly qualified personnel. For his part, he gives the maximum amount of important information about his company, additional opportunities for the offer, indicates a confidentiality framework.

Then the recruiter receives a detailed description of what the client expects from the candidate, both in terms of qualifications and personal qualities. Only after completing all these agreements on paper does paperwork begin. Most agencies charge for their services, as the selection process can take a long time and requires certain resources. The cost of Executive Search starts at 30% of the annual salary.

What is the difference between the work of the Executive Search recruiter from the usual selection:

• He searches and attracts either a specific specialist, or gives a pool of relevant candidates who are in a passive search;
• It works only with its base and under strict confidentiality conditions;
• Searches only for top management or highly qualified specialists;
• Participates in negotiations at all stages and monitors feedback even after employment.
