What makes us different? Here’s a great example:

Recently we interviewed a CN for a role with one of our clients. When we shared our clients company name with the CN, she said recalled receiving an email from another recruiting firm (large national) 2 months before, stating that this particular company wanted to interview her, and that she was to click accept or decline based on her interest in pursuing it. She did not know the recruiting firm sent her resume to this company and the recruiter had never talked to her about the company so she looked into the company by going online.  Based on her research she came to the conclusion that the company’s culture was similar to her current company, which is the driver for her looking for another job in the first place, so she declined. After we talked to her about the company’s environment, and were able to back it up based on the fact that we have many years of experience working with them, our personal experiences working directly with the owner, and could to talk about past people we’ve placed there and how long they have been there, she totally changed her mind and had a high interest in the opportunity.  If this recruiting firm had a different process, and knew the environments of their customers like we do, a different outcome would have happened and she would have had interest.  Not only did this recruiter lose, but they did their client no justice – from our perspective she’s a really strong fit for the job. So, you have a client who has been struggling for months to find the right person to fill this job, which will also allow one of his employees to finally retire. Think about all the time that could have been saved if in fact she does end up being a good fit for this job.  The other recruiting firms lack of a good process affected the lives of not only an owner looking for an employee, but also an employee who is ready to move on with their life into retirement but has continued working for months after she was hoping to retire. All this recruiter did was create a lose, lose, lose situation. A ‘non-negotiable’ belief we share is that we impact the lives of our candidates and employees as well as the success of our client companies. THAT is what sets us apart.
