Using a proprietary database, library research, and original research, consultants immediately begin researching, contacting, screening and developing potential candidates. Details of potential candidates who, upon an in-depth screening of their employment information, are qualified and interested in the position are developed. In addition, we interview and evaluate each separate potential candidate soon after your initial feedback.
Candidate Recommendation Report focuses specifically on the critical factors necessary for the position as defined in the Search Plan. Using a Focused Interview Guide, consultants’ assess personal background, education, employment, compensation, career potential, and management and leadership skills, abilities and style of the candidates. This evaluation provides the detail necessary for our clients to select candidates to meet for the first time. Cortaal Global assists clients in scheduling meetings with these Finalist Candidates.
Prior to a second interview, Finalist candidates prepare a Cortaal Global Self-Evaluation of professional accomplishments, professional strengths and weaknesses, career planning and challenges and obstacles to accepting a potential employment offer. This is included in the Candidate Evaluation report which also contains verification of educational and professional credentials, as well as employment and compensation history. Upon selection, Cortaal Global again provides assistance in scheduling finalist candidates to meet with you and others that you determine.
Once a finalist candidate is chosen, Cortaal Global will thoroughly check employment and personal references. Upon your request, we also coordinate pre-employment investigative checks including: education and professional qualifications; employment history; financial history and legal history. Cortaal Global prefers to conduct references and coordinate checks prior to extending an employment offer.
Our consultants will also assist you in recruiting the lead candidate to the extent that you desire our active involvement. Cortaal Global can help you construct, present and explain a competitive Employment Offer based on realistic market data and your companies compensation strategy.
Finally, Cortaal Global acts as an intermediary to change, adjust, or gain acceptance for to the initial Employment Offer. Throughout this part of the Search Process, we represent our clients and act in accordance with their directions. Once the Chosen Candidate accepts your Employment Offer, we continue to work to ensure a smooth transition to your company.
