The Process

As a premier executive recruiting firm focused on C-Suite Executives, Operations and Sales leaders for the Aerospace Industry, my philosophy is quite simple:

I help client companies find impact players to help their business in the same way that they conduct business… With a detailed, disciplined approach and lots of client-oriented service. 

01

It has already started

Every day I am proactively reaching out and building relationships with the leading, employed executives who are making a positive impact in their organizations.  I am continually searching for BUSINESS LEADERS and A++ Players within Aviation / Aerospace.

02

Full Understanding of the Role

First I’ll get a complete understanding of the position needed and will work extensively with you to better define the role. Leveraging my unique experience within the industry, I can truly grasp not only the specifics of the role, but the nuances of what it means to your company.

I STRONGLY encourage a meeting at your offices to get the best ideas of your company culture, strengths of key executives, interactions between teammates, etc.
 
The more I know about YOU and YOUR company, the better I can highlight the strengths to great candidates.

03

Definition of the Ideal Candidate

Together we will define the ideal candidates, including identification of competing / similar companies from which they are employed, the skills they need to possess, tenure, experience, and overall strategy. 

04

Create an EXCITING Position Description

The position description is a great tool to get “A Candidates” excited about YOUR company, its mission, executives, goals, products, etc.  I feel it is essential to create one that attracts / excites the right people.

05

Execute to Agreed Timeline

Every search is different in timeline, but it has been my experience that there are certain metrics which can be met. To ensure a smooth and expeditious hiring process that is candidate and client friendly, I will establish a search timeline with matching metrics, and firmly hold to it.

06

Connect With Top Talent

I reach out to candidates directly, and via my extensive network, to identify outstanding executives who are a direct match for your role, bring outstanding skills, are willing to relocate (if necessary) to your offices, and come within your budget (+/- a few percentage points).

07

Regular Updates

Every week I’ll provide updates with regards to candidates we’ve sourced, conversations we’re having and market responses. Via these updates, together we can identify changes in search parameters should they be necessary.

08

Submittal

I will submit to you the top 3 or 4 candidates that are a great match for the role, as well as provide detailed information on other candidates. From my 15 years’ experience I will have candidates identified within the first 30- 60 days from search commencement.

09

Final Interviews

Smooth processes make it easier for everyone. I’ll work with you and each candidate to ensure the logistics of interviews are smooth, quick, and easy.

10

Final Negotiations

I hate “end-zone surprises,” so I’ll ensure they do not happen.  Final candidates will be “closed” on basic salary expectations, benefits, relocation packages, etc.  Client companies can rest assured that offers made to candidates will be accepted without an undue burden / worry of excessive negotiations or last-minute candidate demands.
