The Recruiter Advantage
Exclusivity
Often, employers will use Wolfe Search Group as their only form of recruiting. They know the results they receive from a professional recruiter are filtered to only the most appropriate candidates. Working with us may open up doors that would otherwise be closed.
Marketplace Knowledge
Wolfe Search Group knows which companies are hiring and the reasons why. It is important to know if there was high turnover in a law department or whether or not the attorneys in the department are busy. These and many other company facts should be considered when deciding whether to accept a new position. In addition, many professionals, although doing well in their current positions, want to know about exceptional opportunities that arise on occasion. These professionals are not “in the market” but maintain relationships with Wolfe Search Group to be their eyes and ears in the marketplace.
Interview Coaching
Experienced search consultants know how interviews work. Advice can range from help in understanding the company and its position so that a candidate interviews with confidence and understands the specific ways to handle sensitive issues such as compensation, prearranged vacations, and important questions. The search consultant can also help the candidate handle complex situations such as the management of multiple interviews with multiple companies. A well prepared candidate will help the client company make the best decision as well.
Improved Communication
Wolfe Search Group is involved with the entire search process and should be aware of lingering questions or concerns the employer has or what issues the candidate did not effectively handle. This can be crucial especially if there was a misunderstanding between the parties. By giving and receiving feedback from both the employer and candidate, the search consultant monitors the communication and understanding the parties have with each other.
Career Counseling
Helpful advice regarding career moves comes from years of experience. Understanding the way people are promoted and develop within their profession is an advantage we use to help our candidates develop great careers. A candidate who knows what his or her goal is needs only to figure out the best avenue to get there.
