iMMpact Talent Partners has several different ways to serve our hiring authorities and their respective organization based on their goals and needs, all of which aim to deliver the best matching, direct recruited candidates in a timely, efficient and budget-conscious manner:
- Retained Search
Particularly for executive level searches, usually we work with our hiring authorities on a retained basis. This is the best way for our hiring authorities to ensure that they get a first look at all appropriately matching candidates. The terms and process will vary slightly based on the particular situation, but this approach ensures delivery in the most confidential manner possible through the exclusivity given to our firm on the particular search. Many firms abuse their retained search relationships as these situations can breed complacency, marginalized search results and slow or prolonged delivery. We not only set hard-stop benchmarks aligned with the hiring authority’s sense of urgency, but we also reciprocate the value a retained search offers us with flexible payment terms for the hiring organization upon: 1. initiation of the search, 2. sourcing, screening and scheduling of candidates, 3. Offer, acceptance and on-boarding of the selected candidate.
- Engaged Search
One of our most prevalent ways we work with our hiring authorities, an engaged search offers our firm an exclusive opportunity to be the sole firm tasked with a search assignment. This does not involve any part of the placement fee up front, but it is a mutually beneficial approach in that your trust in us is rewarded by a devoted, timely search, one that also creates a very high level of confidentiality and receptiveness within our talent pool. This is a highly effective approach for the most senior or junior of roles, really benefitting the hiring authority by ensuring they get a first look at all appropriately matching candidates given the nature of our exclusive engagement of services. Placement fee is due upon start date of the candidate.
- ExecuSure Program
For searches in which our services are either retained or engaged, we are able to offer something NO other search firm in the World currently offers. Given the importance and also investment made in hiring senior level positions, retention and ROI is key in these hires more so than most roles within an organization. As such, iMMpact Talent Partners offers a one-of-a-kind, 100% money back guarantee for one year on the placement fee for any senior level executive search conducted on a retained or engaged basis, our ExecuSure program.
- Contingency Search
For searches at a mid-level, particularly with newer relationships with organizations we have just started working for, contingency search can be a productive option. Contingency search engages our services in manner where we are not retained or exclusive in working with the hiring company, but still deliver the same level of quality. The drawback of a contingency search is that is does not give them a level of exclusivity and assurance of delivery, but it does allow our search consultants to market candidates more openly to multiple suitors as opposed to just one exclusive hiring organization.
- In-Sourcing
Particularly with junior to mid-level searches, many of the hiring authorities we represent have been either forced or strongly encouraged to seek more of a job-board type approach given some of our competitors’ approach to these searches. Obviously, this is basically any online posting and absence of a true sourcing-screening-selecting process creates a pile of paper and a ton of work for the hiring authority, basically putting them in a position to have to do their own recruiting. We have introduced a very innovative, dynamic alternative to this passive approach. Our In-Sourcing program essentially tackles these junior to mid-level searches on a project basis, where the hiring authority will receive the devoted service of one of our search consultants, cradle to grave, in executing what generally tend to be multiple hire situations. We can deliver a true search and recruitment process while also remaining cost-competitive of some of the more widely used yet vastly unsuccessful passive, reactive, impersonal online recruiting approaches.
- On-Boarding
This is a service we offer free of charge with any hiring approach the client should choose to utilize. On-boarding is arguably the most important yet one of the most overlooked and undervalued elements of a successful talent acquisition strategy. Hiring organizations often assume the deal is done once the offer letter is signed. Not so fast. This is the most critical time for the new hire and hiring manager to invest in each other, ensuring a smooth transition into the relationship for both sides. We facilitate the maximization of the “dead time” between offer/acceptance and start date to ensure there is active communication between both sides, to ensure a “quick out of the gates” start to the partnership.
