Services & Methodology

We believe in using whichever methodologies are most appropriate to the assignment. This ensures the most successful cost effective and expedient solution. We will typically recommend the use of one approach or a mix as agreed. Our unique 4-Way Methodology™ encompasses Search, Selection, Portfolio Networking and Internet to thoroughly search the “whole market” for talent and forms a highly effective sourcing solution.

6

Executive SearchA direct “headhunt” approach into a pre-selected, researched target market. Primarily useful where talent is likely to be working in direct competitors and is secure, well rewarded and performing - the ultimate passive candidate.

Candidates sourced match your skill set and your corporate culture. We use our knowledge & experience to identify companies employing suitable candidates. Then determine which candidates are established as being "best in the field". We follow advanced in-house interview processes and manage the interview & offer process to ensure successful on boarding of talent sourced.

Employing this methodology is ultimately more expedient, efficient and effective. We provide strict confidentiality, an extensive network of contacts, objectivity in candidate evaluation, and negotiation experience and expertise.

Selection Advertising Best combined with a Search to reach a wide talent market.

Advertising substantially accelerates the timescales

It is an excellent marketing tool for your business

Broad range of National, Trade and International Media options

Our large media discounts are passed onto you.

Networking of the response generates referrals to better-fit talent.

Advertised selection helps achieve true diversity and equality

Adverts can be dual branded or anonymous, utilising our recognised brand for confidentiality.

7

Professionally written, placed, filtered and networked, Selection Advertising provides a base of candidates highly motivated for the role and your employer brand.

Database & Portfolio Networking / Cross Border Searches

We manage a Global Talent Pool of available Rising Stars. These individuals are highly motivated to move. We share information internally ensuring that each relevant consultant can assist on a search.

Over 20% of our assignments filled via business shared between offices and consultants, not achieved to this level elsewhere in the staffing industry.

By pooling our resources in each locality we can initiate seamless cross border searches across a region to secure the best talent for a role.

Online / .com

There are in excess of 25,000 job boards competing for candidate attention - that is in addition to your own career site!

We simplify the myriad of choice. Not all executives post their details online, but many use it as a shop window. In certain areas use of the web has proved very effective. The key is knowing where to advertise for a particular role / sector or skill set.

Again responses are networked for better talent and we handle the volumes it can produce saving you time, money and protecting your employer brand. Bespoke Recruitment websites can be designed for specific campaigns.

What Others Say……… a selection from recent Client Service Reviews

“performed a completely professional job in finding appropriate candidates for this position, were also totally professional in being available, offering constructive advice and following up on this assignment at all stages”.

" we've had a very positive experience with Antal who within 6 weeks got us out of a recruitment which had been dragging for 7 months with another search company…very good understanding of Company profile: all candidates proposed had a very good base fit to company culture.”

“Broad international network leading to truly international talent hunt: I have been offered people coming from 3 countries, Italy, Belgium and Germany. I know from search reports that candidates have been identified in an even broader number of countries.”

“I have been working with Antal International over recent months and I have to say that the results speak for themselves. The resulting fee was no greater than those charged by other search companies, with whom we incur cost even if there is no placement. Antal also conduct conventional searches”

“I rarely recommend recruitment firms (once every ten years!), but I think Antal warrant it in this situation. They were great to work with, kept me on the straight and narrow and made sure we kept the process on track. I delegated all of the interview arrangements to him and they were also helpful in the final closing negotiations.”

“Another great strength is their headhunting: They have been able to understand quickly such an unusual market as ours and to find the best candidates even if the company is very demanding.”

“Efficient working process, briefing via phone conference with all search countries involved, weekly tracking of search status, permanent availability on the phone, regular e-mail reporting and contacts, quick responsiveness to client's requests. Antal delivered committed results: contract was for them to offer 3 valid candidates by end July. It was fully met.”

“Ability to work in an integrated manner across a broad geographical region, with strong centralised key account management ensuring pro-activity, service focus, and quality of delivery. Are always pushing both sides to get things done”

“I would like to thank you all for the excellent job you did regarding the recruitment of our Sales Director and for our new Marketing Director Europe.”

“Your methodology of selection, the very good understanding of my business and my needs, together with an excellent analysis of each candidate gave me entire satisfaction. The very good follow-up of each step in the recruitment phases really showed your full commitment to the mission given, as well as a perfect co-ordination between both offices. The teamwork was brilliant.”

“I want to commend you and your associates, on the swiftness and professional handling of my file after I submitted my résumé to your firm. I have been very impressed by the rapidity and efficiency of the contacts with your associates.” “Net, it's been a true pleasure on all counts to work with them."
