Artisan Search manages all aspects of an executive recruitment project. This includes a rigorous search to create a pipeline of candidates and a detailed assessment to ensure the strongest possible shortlist. Our commitment to you also extends beyond the successful hire. Below is a summary of our services;
Executive Search – Project Design & Delivery
An Artisan is a skilled craftsman, trained over many years to be able to create something unique. Our mission is to use our experience to design a bespoke solution to your requirement.
Every search is unique, as is every candidate and no two business requirements are identical. For these reasons we will carry out a detailed assessment of your requirement and design and deliver a project tailored to be successful for both you and your business.
Artisan Search is a modern business. At Artisan we understand that the number of channels through which candidates can be sourced is vast, varied and constantly changing. We are fascinated by what we do and the tools that are available to us. Our staff are skilled in all aspects of executive search including traditional headhunting, advertised selection, using social media and a host of other methods and new technology for engaging talented people on behalf of our clients.
Our pledge to our clients is that we will always use the most appropriate channels to meet your objectives.
Assessment
In order to provide our clients with the best possible talent we conduct a detailed assessment of all suitable candidates. Artisan will design a competency based interview for each and every search to be delivered by an interviewer with a minimum of 12 years interviewing experience. In addition Artisan has relationships with a number of psychometric and behavioural assessment providers and will always be able to recommend a product suited to the specific needs of the search.
