Few fields require the level of specific understanding, high level of expertise and the ability to communicate at so many levels of any organization as engineering. We know the candidate you want to hire is not posting resumes on the job boards or responding to postings. The candidate you want to hire is working hard, focused on projects and probably not even thinking about what other opportunities may be out there that may be the next outstanding step up in his or her career progression.
They are not thinking that until we talk to them. Nearly 90% of our placements are hand-picked candidates, selected from targeted sources and individually introduced to our client’s opportunity. Just matching skill sets, certifications and years of experience is not enough. It’s about matching corporate and field culture, work ethic and style and finding parallels between the client’s corporate and department goals and the candidates career path and motivators.
Before we even begin on a search, we sit down with clients to ascertain their specific engineering needs: everything from job function to what makes the company a great company for a prospective candidate. Most engineers are not actively searching, so the better we can present your firm, the more interest we will generate for you. Job function isn’t the only important part of the puzzle. What else does your company offer? Benefits, bonuses, ownership or partnership potential, corporate retreats, flexible time? Each engineer has an individual set of criteria and personal goals.
We begin the search, first targeting the local market if possible and expanding outward as needed. At HIRE4Group, our Engineering Recruiter associates are specialists in specific fields of engineering. This is our niche, our expertise.
We believe in an open office policy. Clients and candidates are welcome to call anytime. After all, we are in the business of helping people. If hiring authorities can only talk on the weekends or evenings, we will make ourselves available to them. Our approach to both clients and candidates brings an exceptional low recidivism rate. Please feel free to call us or E-mail us with any questions.
