The Transcera Search Process
Here is a brief overview of the 10 critical aspects of our search process. Every step is designed to ensure “dead bolt” matches for each client’s unique hiring situation.
Assess Situation-Specific Needs
Working with our client; we create a recruiting strategy that will rapidly pinpoint the best possible candidates for the available position. We leverage our extensive industry experience to identify key employment and hiring trends that may impact the search process.
Understand Client Expectations
To ensure the best possible match, we must first develop an accurate, comprehensive job description. Transcera’s search professionals invest extensive time at the onset of the assignment to understand the client’s specific recruiting needs. Attention to detail from the start allows our recruiters to carefully qualify each candidate before moving on to more critical search phases.
Assess Market Conditions
Major market trends and changes can ultimately affect a company’s ability to successfully recruit and hire top candidates. To develop search strategies that keep pace with these changes, we first conduct a comprehensive assessment of the relevant industries, companies, competitors, and markets.
Dig Deeper
Transcera’s search professionals understand that locating the best possible candidate goes beyond matching skills and experience. So once we understand our client’s expectations and the current market conditions, we help our clients uncover the intangible characteristics (leadership characteristics, personality style, work ethic, etc.) that the ideal candidate must possess.
Qualify Potential Candidates
Before our client ever speaks to a candidate, Transcera conducts an in-depth qualification to ensure the talent meets all established requirements, including experience, skills ,and culture fit. Our search professionals screen out applicants who do not meet all search parameters, so our clients only ever see the “cream of the crop.”
Present the Best Matches
Once we have developed a short list of highly qualified candidates, we create a detailed profile of each applicant and submit it for client review. These detailed assessments help the client to quickly assess their next steps. Our search professionals then work closely with both hiring decision-makers and candidates to ensure a “dead-bolt” match on all levels.
Contact Employment References
To establish a candidate’s credibility and historical performance, Transcera contacts former employers to conduct a highly detailed reference check. Our process is rigorous, thorough, and ensures your hires are of the highest caliber.
Conduct Background Checks
At the client’s request, Transcera will arrange background checks including: criminal reports, civil reports, lawsuits, judgments, liens, bankruptcies, home value and property ownership, as well as up to 30-year address histories.
Negotiate Winning Deals
Effective communication is critical in the final stages of executive placement. Our search professionals are experts at helping both the client and candidate navigate the complex negotiation process – saving all those involved time and frustration. By carefully managing expectations on both sides, Transcera successfully completes search assignments in an average of 62 days.
Relationship
Our job is not done once a candidate accepts the client’s offer. We continue the relationship with our client and applicant through a retention program, ensuring their satisfaction via ongoing feedback and regular communication.
