How an Executive Agent Works
We work for you, not the hiring companies. This relationship offers a number of advantages over do-it-yourself or retained search:
- We track down promising leads behind the scenes, without disrupting your life.
- We take your calls. And we’re always available when you have questions.
- We target companies and create positions that meet your explicit criteria.
- We develop a plan based on your needs. Then we stick to it.
- We coach you through interview scenarios and challenging situations.
- We negotiate on your behalf and close the deal.
After an initial consultation, we develop a customized program to help you find exactly the position you want. A typical engagement includes a range of services, including:
- Competency & Leadership Assessments
- 360 Degree Reference Validation
- Resume Review & Re-Design
- Strategy Development & Targeting
- Execution of Strategy
- Interview Coordination, Coaching & Logistics
- Opportunity Management & Prioritization
- Negotiation of Executive Compensation Package
- Introducing Strategic Partners for Professional Services on an As-Needed Basis
Unlimited Possibilities. One Fixed Fee.
We provide our complete suite of services for a fixed-fee retainer payable at specific milestones. The entire fee is the equivalent of just one or two months’ salary for most of our clients. For many, that’s a small price to pay to find a more satisfying, better compensated executive position — usually in less than half the time it would take to do it yourself.
