In previous newsletters, we've provided some "sneak peaks" into our process including how we conduct our reference checks and how we present our client companies to potential candidates. As a continuing segment, we're sharing how we uncover promising candidates for our client companies.

How we handle the actual search portion of our process is incredibly important. When working to identify candidates, we want to make sure no stone is left unturned. We want to completely cover the market before going to our client with our top candidates so we can assure our clients that we have found the best possible talent. In order to accomplish this, our search process requires us to be creative, but also very methodical and thorough. Here's what we do:

Have a Designated Research Team
At Tier One Executive Search, we have a team of professionals who are specifically skilled in information and data retrieval to search for, and identify qualified candidates. Our research manager attends our needs analysis meetings with our clients to hear fist-hand their hiring needs. From there, our research team builds an ideal candidate summary, comes up with the sourcing strategy, identifies the right search tools to use, and builds search queries to apply across such tools.

Stay Current with the Latest Tools
At Tier One, we keep a continuously updated slate of tools including subscription-based databases, new websites, extensions, apps, social media platforms, as well as methods of retrieving data to identify potential candidates. Our research team is continuously evaluating the latest technologies and learning the latest research techniques by attending conferences and webinars. This ensures that we have the latest and greatest tools to identify key talent and compete against other employers.

Years of Networking
Tier One has been in operation for over 17 years. For 17 years we have been networking in the manufacturing and automotive retail industries. Anticipating the future hiring needs of our clients, we are continuously recording the skills, experience and accomplishments of the professionals we come across. With a high regard to detail, we enter this data into our database so we can quickly retrieve these professionals when our client is ready to make a hire.

Conclusion
Ensuring we identify the best possible candidates for our clients means that investment in research is necessary. At Tier One, we are proud of our investment in research, as it has helped us to become the leading, competitive executive search firm that we are.
