We know from our experience that successfully identifying and finding Talent requires five key expert capabilities.
- a Discovery process that defines the performance outcomes that the role needs to deliver.
- an advisor who has the experience and expertise to understand the role, act as a Trusted Advisor and the expertise to target where you will find high calibre candidates.
- a superb network, a strong database and the capability that looks beyond the square to discover Talent who can succeed in very competitive markets.
- an assessment and selection process that is rigorous and robust so that it identifies and validates capabilities, potential and areas of risk.
- the skill to work as a Trusted Advisor with candidates to enable them to understand the role and which assists them in working through leaving and how to be successful in their new role.
We are the “First Face of Our Client”. How we work with a candidate is how a candidate perceives our client.
As a result our success has been built over years through being the Trusted Advisor to both our clients and our candidates.
Therefore to identify Talent we work closely with you to customise a Talent sourcing strategy that is based on one or a combination of the following options:

Advertised Recruitment
We select the print media and the online (standard, speciality and social media) sites that we know will attract the best possible talent to fit the profile that we developed during our Discovery with you. Our advertisements are psychometrically focused to ensure that they really engage with our target audience.
Advertised Search
As a combined option you have the benefits of advertised recruitment combined with a highly focused search within a specific industry, profession or business sector. It enables a wider pool of candidates to be targeted for the role.
Targeted Search
Targeted Search is a powerful tool that targets specific organisations, industries, professions or business sectors as well as a range of likely additional sources where Talent with similar skills to those identified in the Discovery are likely to be located.
Shoulder Tapping
This approach is highly cost effective and is utilised when we (or our client) know of a specific person that may be suitable for the role. We approach them in the same way we would for a search to attract them to the role.
New Zealand Search
When it is essential to cover the widest possible range of candidates as a potential source for Talent then we would recommend New Zealand Search. It enables us to target and identify candidates from a wide range of backgrounds and industry sectors who may have a high potential fit to the role to be identified, assessed and shortlisted.
International Search
Working with our global partners and with our expertise in using key internationally focussed search tools we have significant capability to identify those candidates with specialist technical skills that have the international experience, combined with their knowledge and the capability, to succeed in large, specialist, complex or globally facing roles.
Internal Recruitment & Assessment
With change it is essential that staff applying internally for roles have a seamless, robust and a transparent process to select the candidates who are best suited for the role(s). Our Internal Recruitment & Assessment is recognised both for its rigorous methodology as well as for the career development options it offers to both the organisation and to the candidates involved.
