Stuttgart Headhunters

Our Process

We offer customized executive search services that align with the unique needs of our clients. This ensures that the people we recommend for vacancies are the right fit. This is realized through our profound understanding of various functions and sectors, the industry expertise built across years of senior assignments, a vast network of partners, and the latest recruitment technologies.

We commence the recruitment journey by conversing with our client’s business leaders to perform a structured needs analysis and define the course of our search. This encompasses what they are looking for in a potential hire, whether they are seeking a permanent or interim management solution, the responsibilities of the job, and any further information that might prove beneficial in our hunt for the ideal candidate. Once the search parameters have been established, our executive search consultants can begin examining the market for suitable individuals.

Every professional we find who shows promise as a potential match is thoroughly vetted before being shortlisted for the client to review. This involves performing rigorous background, reference, and criminal record checks to verify their resumes. From initial briefing through to signed contract, we map the clearest route to a successful placement for every search. 

In the rare case that a placed candidate does not meet our client’s expectations within the first 365 days, whether through underperformance, an early resignation, or a poor cultural fit, we will replace them at no extra cost. Our collaboration works as much during this transition as during the initial search itself.
